GENERAL PROVISIONS
§ 51.001 SCOPE AND PURPOSE.
   The scope and purpose of this Ordinance is to aid in the prevention of sanitary sewer blockages and obstructions from contributions and accumulations of fats, oils, greases and other substances into the sanitary sewer system from industrial or commercial establishments or other users, particularly food preparation and serving facilities, as the discharge of fats, oils, greases and other substances into the sanitary sewer system interfere with the operations of the system, cause blockage and plugging of pipelines, interfere with normal operation of pumps and their controls, and contribute waste of a strength or form that is beyond the treatment capability of the sewer treatment plant.
(Prior Code, Art. 16A)
§ 51.002 PROHIBITED DISCHARGE.
   Notwithstanding any other provision herein, no user shall discharge any water or wastewater containing non-emulsified fats, wax, grease or oils, in excess of one-hundred parts per million by weight (100 mg/L) or containing any substance which may solidify or become viscous at temperatures between 32° and 150° Fahrenheit.
(Prior Code, Art. 16A, § IA)
