[Sharron Rogers]

Anyone running a food service or treating waste water from a system that
drains a food service in North Carolina should be interested in this
document.


 Fats, Oil and Grease Management Guidance Available


"Considerations for Management of the Discharge of Fats, Oils and Grease
(FOG) to Sanitary Sewer Systems"  (June 2002) is available at
http://www.p2pays.org/ref/20/19024.pdf
<http://www.p2pays.org/ref/20/19024.pdf>  and is a document that provides
guidance on FOG management.  This work is useful in helping the wastewater
pretreatment groups in local governments establish or even modify existing
oil and grease programs.

Outreach and education materials are also provided to raise awareness of
commercial, institutional and residential generators to help keep their
drains "Fat Free". This document is the result of the FOG Task Force which
met over the past year and half to produce guidance on developing effective
and reasonable FOG regulatory programs with an emphasis on generator
education and Best Management Practices.  Also contained in the guidance is
info on food donation and how to prevent FOG from entering the municipal
sewer system via food service or homeowners.

For more information contact Norma Murphy at 919-715-6513 or

if you have any questions or comments on the content of the FOG document.
If possible, please share it with your local governement pretreatment
officials and food service operators.
