Contingency Plan (Section VI.4)
The contingency plan includes all items employed by the departmental staff to ensure
redundancy in the system. Secondary pumps, fixed, on-site generator and portable
generators, pump parts, fittings, pipe materials and even contractors for emergency
consultation and assistance has been established for use in the event of an emergency or
failure of primary parts of the system. If one of the pumps in a pump station containing
multiple pumps fails,the process of repairing or replacing the pump shall be initiated
immediately and the new parts or pump shall be installed as soon as possible. If the pump in
a simplex pump station fails it shall be replaced immediately.
Routine maintenance will identify repairs needs within the system components.The
appropriate repair for any given problem is dependent upon the nature of the problem and
cannot be prescribed in this plan. However a priority hierarchy has been established to
structure what and when repairs are to be accomplished. The hierarchy is based upon
identifying and repairing critical components first. Critical components are parts of the
collection system which if failure occurs will result in system failure and sewer overflow.
Such items may include failure of a pump, failure of a backup generator to start, or
obstruction in the sewer line. Other problems identified by maintenance activities will be
less acute and can be repaired on a lower priority basis. This may include loose or missing
manhole bricks, broken manhole covers, lift station lighting, etc. When normal maintenance
activities identify the need for component repairs or when problems are brought to the
attention of the system by customers or others, the problem and corresponding repair will be
assigned a priority ranking based on the following hierarchy.
The response time is a requirement for the system to complete. Not meeting the
required response time will be considered a failure on the part of the system to meet
the requirements of this plan. The repair time goal is a stated goal. Many factors,
some out of the control of the system, will impact the ability of the system to make
the necessary repairs. Not meeting the repair goals will not be considered a plan
failure but will be noted in self-audits from which plan and or operational changes
may be fashioned.

H.INTRODUCTION
"FOG"stands for Fat,Oil,Grease and wax discharged to sanitary sewers maintained by Stanly County
Utilities(SCU)Department. The FOG Program, by ordinance,requires food service establishments or
"FSEs"and sewer users that may discharge excessive FOG,to have, operate and maintain at their own
expense approved grease interceptors or traps. Grease interceptors and traps are devices that remove FOG
and related debris from wastewater and contain them until a seepage management firm can properly
dispose of them.
Stanly County's FOG Program is mandated by federal and state government and is a requirement of the
Wastewater Collection System Permit Numbers: WQ0030753,WQ0034113, WQ0034650, WQ0031189,
WQCS00171,WQ0029354,&WQ0010639 issued to Stanly County by the Department of Environment
and Natural Resources.The FOG Program will help protect sewers against accumulations of FOG that
can interfere with the operation and maintenance of sewers.
The FOG Program includes,among others,the following elements:
• County Ordinances(discussed in Sections II below)
• SCU Implementation Plan(Section III below)
III. ORDINANCES
The County of Stanly Ordinance establishes the basic framework for the FOG Program. Presented below
are excerpts from and references to some of the relevant ordinances. In general, SCU' plans to satisfy the
duties assigned by County ordinance and to exercise the authority delegated by County ordinance as set
out in the Implementation Plan(Section III below). However,this document is not intended and shall not
be construed to narrow or limit Stanly County or SCU authority.
A.Basic Grease Interceptor/Trap Requirements
All new food service establishments("FSEs")and all users that discharge excessive FOG shall have
approved grease interceptors or grease traps that are properly designed, sited, installed,operated,and
maintained. Food service establishments("FSE")in operation on January 1,2015 shall comply with this
requirement no later than January 1,2016(and sooner if necessary to remedy a sewer problem).If
fixtures are added that discharge wastewater with FOG,the fixtures must be plumbed into an interceptor
or trap.
For more details please see,for example, Stanly County Sewer Use Ordinance Article V(Section 3Xd),
Article V(Section 6),Article IV(Section 6)
B.Inspections,Recordkeeping,and Reporting
SCU is authorized to conduct inspections and to require record-keeping and reporting by sewer users,
including municipal users,for grease interceptors and grease traps. For more details please see,for
example, Stanly County Sewer Use Ordinance Article VII(Section 1-2,4),Article V(Section 6).
4

C.FOG Program Coverage
Sewer users outside the city limits, including municipal users,must comply with FOG-related
requirements. For more details please see,for example, Stanly County Sewer Use Ordinance Article II
(Section 1-2).
D.Enforcement
SCU has various types of authority pursuant to the Stanly County Sewer Use Ordinance,North Carolina
statutes, and the common law to enforce the FOG Program, including but not limited to the following:
• Discontinuation of water and sewer service.
• Assessment of civil penalties as outlined in the Stanly County Sewer Use Ordinance.
• Assessment of the County's cleanup,repair and other costs of response to noncompliance.
• Coordinate prosecution for criminal violations,including falsification of records.
• Abatement of a violation as a nuisance.
For more details please see,for example, Stanly County Sewer Use Ordinance Article IX(Section 1-2).
IV. IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
This Section III is SCU's FOG Control Program Implementation Plan that describes SCU's plan for
satisfying the duties assigned by County ordinance and for exercising the authority delegated by County
ordinance.This FOG Control Program Implementation Plan will be amended from time to time by SCU,
consistent with SCU's assigned duties and delegated authority. However,this document, including this
Section III, is not intended and shall not be construed to narrow or limit SCU authority.
A. Approval Process for Grease Interceptors and Traps
Food service establishments("FSEs")and other sewer users required by Stanly County Sewer Use
Ordinance Article V(Section 6)to have grease interceptors or traps must obtain approval for their
interceptors/traps and for any changes in design,operation,or modification to existing grease
interceptors/traps.This requirement applies to both existing and new interceptors and traps.
Requests for approval should be submitted well in advance of any applicable deadline for installation.
1.New grease interceptor/traps
a. User Request.Requests for approval of new grease interceptors/traps must obtained
by Stanly County Inspections Department.
b. Response. Stanly County Inspections Department will approve or deny plans and
will work with users to develop acceptable plans.NOTE: A grease interceptor or trap
may be installed only after Stanly County Inspections Department has granted
approval.A user with a new grease interceptor or trap that has not received approval
will not be allowed to discharge wastewater to the sewer.
5

2.Existinggrease interceptor/traps
s P P
a. User Request.Requests for approval of existing grease interceptors/traps must include
the following:
• Grease Interceptor/Trap Verification Form completed by a licensed NC septage
management firm,a NC licensed plumber or NC professional engineer,and
providing the required information, including the volume and condition of the
existing interceptor/trap.To obtain a Grease Interceptor/Trap Verification Form,
see the website www.stanlycountync.gov.
b. Response.Based on information provided in a Grease Interceptor/Trap Verification
Form and an onsite evaluation by Stanly County Inspections Department the
owner/operator will be notified that the existing grease interceptor/trap is:
(1)Currently satisfactory; or
(2)Not satisfactory and that corrective actions(such as installing/adding devices
and performing maintenance and repairs)must be accomplished by a specified
date.
B. SCU Inspections Program For Grease Interceptors And Traps
SCU will conduct mandatory inspections of every food service establishment connected to the sanitary
sewer system, and at other sewer user locations and times as SCU deems appropriate. If FOG is
responsible for a sewer blockage,all food service establishments(and other sewer user locations as
deemed appropriate by SCU)upstream from the blockage will be inspected.
Based on the results of inspections SCU will notify users of any required corrective actions and deadlines
for compliance.
C. Maintenance Requirements.
1.General Maintenance Requirements.All grease interceptors and traps shall be maintained by the
owner and/or operator's expense so as to be in continuously effective operation. The use of enzymes
or biological grease interceptor/trap additives is not prohibited;however,they shall not be used as an
alternative to the pumping of a grease interceptor/trap,nor as a primary method of grease
interceptor/trap maintenance.
2.Pumping/Cleaning Requirements.Pumping/cleaning of grease interceptors and traps shall
include the complete removal of all contents, including floatable materials,wastewater, sludge,and
solids and must comply with the requirements and procedures administered by the North Carolina
Division of Waste Management and all other applicable requirements. All waste removed from each
grease interceptor/trap shall be properly and lawfully removed,transported,and disposed of at a
facility permitted by the North Carolina Division of Waste Management to receive such waste.
6

3.Improper(Prohibited)Activities.Improper activities that are harmful to the sewer system and are
likely to trigger enforcement action against responsible persons include the following:
• Hot water running continuously through grease interceptor/trap.
• Discharge into a grease interceptor/trap of concentrated alkaline or acidic
solutions,concentrated detergents, etc.
• Separation,decanting or back flushing of the grease interceptor/trap or its wastes.
• Any discharge of grease interceptor/trap waste to the sanitary sewer or
wastewater treatment facilities.
4.Pumping/Cleaning Frequency.

Anytime floatable grease layer exceeds six inches in depth as measured by an approved dipping
method; and
Anytime the settleable solids layer exceeds eight inches in depth as measured by an approved
dipping method; and
Anytime the total volume of captured grease and solid material displaces more than 25 percent of
the capacity of the interceptor as calculated using an approved dipping method; and
Anytime the interceptor is not retaining/capturing FOG.
b. Grease Traps. Grease traps shall be pumped and cleaned:
At least once every 30 days(or more frequently as specified by SCU);and
Anytime the total volume of captured grease and solid material displaces more than 25 percent of
the total volume of the trap.
5.No obstruction of Access.Grease interceptors and traps are to be kept free from obstructions that
would hinder or prevent inspection and/or maintenance activities at all times.Obstructions include but
are not limited to vehicles,dumpsters,waste oil bins, landscaping plants, sink drains/plumbing,and
stored kitchen supplies.
D.Recordkeeping Requirements

•Abatement of a violation as a nuisance.
The SCU director or his designee will use his discretion in making enforcement decisions.
8

Penalties.
In the assessment of penalties,the director will assess the severity of the violation to determine
whether written notice will be given or fines are warranted:
a. Failure to maintain and/or submit records
b. Inspection hindrance(parked vehicles over interceptors, supplies or stored items
blocking grease trap lid,etc.)
c. Failure to maintain grease interceptor/trap
d. Failure to repair necessary equipment(sanitary tees,grease interceptor not watertight,
baffles,etc.)
e. Failure to install grease interceptor or trap
f. Causing or contributing to sewer blockage
g. Causing or contributing to sanitary sewer overflow
h. Falsification of maintenance records
NOTE: Enforcement actions are not limited to grease interceptor/trap violations.For example,grease
interceptors/traps are not required for apartment buildings and/or high density residential units;however,
if an apartment building and/or high density residential area is found to be responsible for causing or
contributing to a blockage or sanitary sewer overflow,enforcement action may include: ordering the
cleaning of all sanitary waste lines throughout the property, assessment of penalties,and other actions.
Frequently Asked FOG Questions
Q: What is FOG?
A: FOG stands for Fat,Oil,Grease and wax that are discharged to the sanitary sewer—most often
from food preparation activities.
Q: What are the impacts of FOG?
A: FOG can clog sanitary sewer lines and cause overflows that can affect public health and the
environment and increase operating costs.The majority of sanitary sewer backups occur in
private drain lines between homes or businesses and the County's sanitary sewer system.The
property owner is responsible for these private lines. Improper management of FOG by sewer
users, primarily restaurants and other food service establishments has become a significant
problem for wastewater collection and treatment systems. FOG can coat,congeal in,and
accumulate in pipes, pumps,and equipment. By 2008,according to the North Carolina Division
of Water Resources(DWR),about 500 sanitary sewer overflows(SSOs)per year in NC were
attributed to the effects of FOG. When SSOs occur,raw sewage spills onto the ground and
sometimes reaches waterways.As a result of the increasing number of SSOs caused by FOG,the
Environmental Protection Agency and the DWR have developed new requirements for
municipalities that operate collection systems.
Q:Why was the FOG Control Program created?
A: SCU FOG Program is a state and federal mandate and is required by the Wastewater
Collection System Permits issued to the Stanly County by the State.The FOG Program will help
protect sewers against harmful accumulations of FOG. The FOG Program is discussed in a
document(available from SCU)called the FAT,OIL,GREASE AND WAX(FOG) PROGRAM USER
GUIDANCE DOCUMENT AND SCU IMPLEMENTATION PLAN.

Q:What are the Elements of the FOG Program?
A: The Program includes, among others,the following elements:
•County ordinances
• The SCU Implementation Plan that outlines the SCU plan for complying with its
collection system permit and for satisfying the duties assigned by County ordinance and
exercising its authority delegated by County ordinance The Program requires all food
service establishments(and other sewer users that discharge excessive FOG)to operate
and maintain an approved grease interceptor or trap at their own expense. Grease
interceptors and traps are designed to capture FOG, solids,and other debris before they
enter a sewer,where they become a problem by clogging sewers and disrupting water
flow.The grease interceptors/traps capture those wastes and contain them until a septage
management firm can properly dispose of them.
Q. "Do I have a grease trap or interceptor?"
A.If you are not sure,please contact a local plumber for assistance.
Q. "Do I need a grease trap or interceptor?"
A. Grease interceptors or traps are required for all food service establishments(not just
restaurants)and all sewer users that discharge excessive FOG.
Q. "What is the difference between grease traps and interceptors?"
A.Both grease interceptors and traps are designed to remove FOG from the wastewater before it
enters the County's sanitary sewer collection system. The main difference between the two is
their size.An interceptor is normally 500 gallons or larger and typically located outside.A grease
trap is normally 100 gallons or smaller and can be located either outside or indoors.
Q. "How often should I service my grease interceptor?"
A.At a minimum, SCU requires that all grease interceptors be pumped and cleaned out every
ninety(90)days and grease traps once every thirty(30)days. However,more frequent
maintenance may be required based on site-specific conditions.
Q. "What kinds of problems do oil and grease cause?"
A.Oil and grease build up in sewer lines reduces the system's capacity and can cause a blockage.
Blockages may result in sewer backups and overflows, increased maintenance costs,and
equipment downtime and possible property damage.
Q. "Isn't my business grand-fathered in under the old rules?"
A.A food service establishment in operation on January 1,2015 has until January 1,2016,to
install a grease interceptor or trap,unless an earlier date is necessary to remedy interference with
the operation or maintenance of a sewer.
Q. "Will a garbage disposal affect a grease interceptor?"
A.Absolutely.The ground-up solids that go through the disposal will settle to the bottom of the
grease interceptor and reduce its efficiency.The increased loading will also lead to increased
maintenance frequency and cost.
10

Q. "My restaurant doesn't have space to install an exterior in-ground grease interceptor.
Are there other options?"
A.Although grease interceptors are preferred based on ease of operation,maintenance, and
reliability,this Program also allows for the use of grease traps where appropriate.
Q. "How do I have an interceptor or trap installed?"
A.Most NC licensed plumbers and plumbing contractors install grease interceptors and traps.All
grease interceptors and traps must be approved prior to installation.
Q."If I own an apartment complex,will I be required to install a grease interceptor?"
A.Maybe.If there is an excessive discharge of FOG,an interceptor or trap will be required. In
addition,other measures may be required to address FOG problems,such as distribution to
residents of educational materials.
Q."Who do I contact for questions and information regarding this Program and other
FOG issues?"
A.Please contact SCU at(704)986-3686
V.DESIGN,STRUCTURAL AND INSTALLATION CRITERIA FOR GREASE
INTERCEPTORS AND TRAPS
•Grease Interceptor-A device utilized to effect the separation of grease and oils in wastewater effluent.
Such interceptors may be of the "outdoor" or"underground"type normally of a 500 gallons or more
capacity.
•Grease Trap-A device utilized to effect the separation of grease and oils in wastewater effluent. Such
traps are the "under-the-counter"type normally 100 gallons or less capacity.
GREASE INTERCEPTOR SIZING CRITERIA
Refer to North Carolina Plumbing Code and Stanly County Inspections Department.
MINIMUM DESIGN AND STRUCTURAL CRITERIA FOR EXTERIOR GREASE
INTERCEPTORS
All Food Service Establishments and other users as required by ordinance shall have grease-handling
facilities installed and maintained,at the user's expense.Common grease interceptors,or grease
interceptors that receive FOG laden wastewater from more than one establishment,are prohibited.
Strip Centers with the Potential for Food Service Establishments: Facilities that may not be required to
install a grease trap or interceptor initially,may be required to install such devices in the future,per
Article V(Section 6)of the Stanly County Sewer Use Ordinance,and are encouraged to consider the
installation of a grease trap or interceptor during construction due to the costs of retrofitting facilities.
Grease Interceptors shall conform to Chapter 10, Sec. 1003 of the North Carolina Plumbing Code and
shall be designed and constructed according to the latest publications of ASTM C 1613 Standard
Specification for Precast Concrete Grease Interceptor Tanks or ASTM F 2649 Standard Specification for
