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.
