A. All FOG pretreatment facilities shall be installed, maintained, and operated by the business owner at their own expense. The pretreatment facility shall be adequately sized and located in a manner that provides ready and easy accessibility for cleaning and inspection at all times.

B. The grease interceptors must meet, at a minimum, the specifications of the current Uniform Plumbing Code and International Building Code adopted by the city at the time of construction. No food waste disposal shall be connected to or discharged into any grease trap or interceptor. No toilets shall discharge into an interceptor.

C. Increased volume of discharge (increased business) can become a factor, regarding the efficiency of the grease trap(s). As discharge volumes increase, the need for a larger grease trap(s) or an exterior grease interceptor may be necessary. If the facility’s waste stream discharge is not maintained within city standards, a pretreatment system upgrade will be required at the discharger’s expense. (Ord. 6152 § 5, 2008.)
