§ 55.01 PU POSE.
The p ose of this chapter is to control discharges into the public sewerage collection system and
wastewater eatment plant that interfere with the operations of the system, cause blockage and
plugging of ipelines, interfere with normal operation of pumps and their controls, and contribute
waste of a st ngth or form that either causes treatment difficulties or is beyond the treatment capability
of the wastewater treatment plant.

§ 55.02 DEFINITIONS.
For the purpose of this chapter, the following definitions shall apply unless the context clearly
indicates or requires a different meaning.
FOOD SERVICE FACILITIES. Those establishments primarily engaged in activities of
preparing, serving, or otherwise making available for consumption foodstuffs and that use one or more
of the following preparation activities: cooking by frying(all methods),baking(all methods), grilling,
sauteing, rotisserie cooking, broiling(all methods), boiling, blanching, roasting, toasting, or poaching.
Also included are infrared heating, searing, barbecuing, and any other food preparation activity that
produces a hot, non-drinkable food product in or on a receptacle that requires washing. These facilities
include restaurants, cafeterias, hotels, motels, hospitals, nursing homes, schools, grocery stores,
prisons,jails, churches, camps, caterers, manufacturing plants, or any other sewer users as determined
by the town's Wastewater Collection System Superintendent who discharge applicable waste.
GREASE. Material composed primarily of fats, oil, and grease (FOG) from animal or vegetable
sources. The terms fats, oil, and grease shall be deemed as GREASE by definition. GREASE does not
include petroleum based products.
GREASE TRAP. A device for separating and retaining waterborne greases and grease complexes
prior to the wastewater exiting the trap and entering the sanitary sewer collection and treatment system.
These devices also serve to collect settlable solids, generated by and from food preparation activities,
prior to the water exiting the trap and entering the sanitary sewer collection and treatment system.
OIL/WATER SEPARATOR. An approved and industry standard system that is specifically
designed and manufactured to separate oil from water. The system shall allow the oil to be collected
and removed on a regular basis as to prevent it from being discharge into the wastewater collection
system. Only oil/water separators manufactured for that specific operation will be approved. Adequate
support literature from the manufacturer will be required so as to allow a proper review by the
Wastewater Collections Superintendent.
USER. Any person or establishment including those located outside the jurisdictional limits of the
town who contributes, causes or permits the contribution or discharge of wastewater into the town's
wastewater collection or treatment system, including persons who contribute such wastewater from
mobile sources, such as those who discharge hauled wastewater.
(Ord. passed
4-2-2009)
§ 55.03 CONTROL PLAN FOR (FOG) AND FOOD WASTE.
(A) Any new construction, renovation, or expansion of p Food Service Facilities shall be required to
submit to the town a FOG and food waste control plan that will effectively control the discharge of
undesirable materials into the wastewater collection system.

C ' r
Fats, Oils, and Greases 91
(B) Any existing food service facilities shall also be required to submit a FOG and food waste
control plan that will effectively control the discharge of undesirable materials into the wastewater
collection system. Existing facilities shall not be exempt from requirements of this chapter. There will
be no "Grandfathering."
(Ord. passed 4-2-2009)
§ 55.04 GENERAL CRITERIA.
(A) Installation requirements. All existing, proposed, or newly remodeled food service facilities
inside the town's wastewater service area shall be required to install, at the user's expense an approved,
properly operated and maintained grease trap.
(B) Sanitary sewer flows. Sanitary sewer flows from toilets, urinals, lavatories, etc. shall not be
discharged into the grease trap. These flows shall be conveyed separately to the sanitary sewer service
lateral.
(C) Floor drains. Only floor drains which discharge or have the potential to discharge grease
shall be connected to a grease trap.
(D) Garbage grinders/disposals. It is recommended that solid food waste products be disposed of
through normal solid waste/garbage disposal means. If a grinder/disposal is used it must be connected
to the grease trap. The use of grinders is discouraged since it decreases the operational capacity of the
grease trap and will require an increased pumping frequency to ensure continuous and effective
operation.
(E) Dishwashers. Commercial dishwashers must be connected to the grease trap. Dishwashers
discharge soap and hot water which can melt grease and allow it to pass through an undersized grease
trap. Traps must be sized accordingly to allow enough detention time to allow water to cool and grease
to solidify and float to the top of the trap.
(F) Location. Grease traps shall be installed outside the building upstream from the sanitary
sewer service lateral connection. This will allow easy access for inspection, cleaning, and removal of
the intercepted grease at any time. A grease trap may not be installed inside any part of a building
without written approval by the Collection System Superintendent.
(G) Pass trough limits. No user shall allow wastewater discharge concentration from grease trap
to exceed 100 mg/1 (Milligrams per liter).
(Ord. passed 4-2-2009)

§ 55.05 DESIGN CRITERIA.
(A) Construction. Grease traps shall be constructed in accordance with the town's standards and
shall have a minimum of two compartments with fittings designed for grease retention. All grease
removal devises or technologies shall be subject to the written approval of the Collection System
Superintendent. Such approval shall be based on demonstrated removal efficiencies of the proposed
technology.
(B) Access. Access to grease traps shall be available at all times, to allow for their maintenance
and inspection. Access to trap shall be provided by two manholes (one on each compartment)
terminating at the finished grade with cast iron frame and cover.
(C) Load-bearing capacity. In areas where additional weight loads may exist, the grease trap shall
be designed to have adequate load-bearing capacity. (Example: vehicular traffic in driving or parking
areas)
(D) Inlet and outlet piping. Wastewater discharging to a grease trap shall enter only through the
inlet pipe of the trap. Each grease trap shall have only one inlet and one outlet pipe.
(E) Grease trap sizing. The required size of the grease trap shall be calculated using EPA-2
model. All grease traps shall have a capacity of not less than 1,000 gallon nor exceed a capacity of
3,000 gallon If the calculated capacity exceeds 3,000 gallon,multiple units plumbed in series shall be
installed.
(Ord. passed 4-2-2009)
§ 55.06 GREASE TRAP MAINTENANCE.
(A) Cleaning/pumping.
(1) The user at the user's expense shall maintain all grease traps to ensure proper operation
and efficiency and maintain compliance with the town's pass trough limits.
(2) Maintenance of grease trap shall include the complete removal of all contents, including
floating materials, waster, and bottom sludge and solids. This work shall be performed by a qualified
and licensed hauler. Decanting or discharging of removed wasted back into the trap from which it was
removed or any other grease trap, for the purpose of reducing the volume to be disposed, is prohibited.
This service shall also include a thorough inspection of the trap and its components. Any needed
repairs shall be made at user's expense.
(B) Cleaning/pumping frequency. The grease trap must be pumped out completely at a minimum
of once every four months, or more frequently, as determined by the Collections System
Superintendent, as needed to prevent carry over of grease into the sanitary sewer system.

Fats, Oils, and Greases 93
(C) Disposal. All waste removed from each grease trap must be disposed of at a facility approved
to receive such waste in accordance with the provisions of this program. In no way shall the pumpage
be returned to any private or public portion of the town's sanitary sewer collection system. All
pumpage from grease traps must be tracked by a manifest,which confirms pumping, hauling, and
disposal of waste. The customer must obtain and retain a copy of the original manifest from the hauler.
(D) Maintenance log. A grease trap cleaning/maintenance log indicating each pumping for the
previous 24 months shall be maintained by each food service facility. This log shall include the date,
time, amount pumped,hauler, and disposal site, and shall be kept in a conspicuous location for
inspection. The log shall be made available to the Collection System Superintendent upon request.
(E) Submittal of records.
(1) Each user shall submit all cleaning and maintenance records to the Collection System
Superintendent. The maintenance records shall include the following information:
