The plan shall include provisions for regular inspection, grease reduction best management practices, grease removal, and reporting to the District on a schedule and in a format approved by the District. 2. When required by the District, customer shall take samples for analysis of fat, oil, and grease and provide results to the District. 3.

Customer shall not allow use of any sinks other than those connected to the grease interceptor for rinsing or washing of any cooking utensils, dishes, pots or pans, or any meat products. 5. If customer fails to comply with these terms or the submitted grease interceptor maintenance plan, or if the District FOG discharge limits are continuously (defined as three consecutive testing periods) exceeded, or if the District’s sewer system is adversely affected by discharges from the facility, then the District may require installation of an interceptor vault designed according to Section 6.10.130(3)(C) of the District Code, or its successor to be installed at the owner’s expense. If the customer fails to comply, then, in addition to any other remedy available to the District, the District may disconnect the facility from the District’s sewer system.
