Grease traps/interceptors shall be installed in accordance with the requirements of Chapter 14.35 TMC to ensure compliance with the effluent limitations contained in this chapter. Each grease generator shall be responsible for servicing and routine cleaning of the grease trap and/or grease interceptor to maintain it in satisfactory operating condition. Each grease generator shall ensure that grease traps and grease interceptors are cleaned as often as necessary to ensure that sediment and floating materials do not accumulate to impair the efficiency of the grease trap and/or grease interceptor; to ensure the discharge is in compliance with local discharge limits; and that no visible grease is observed in discharge. Each grease generator shall also be responsible for removing the cover of the grease trap for inspection at the request of any representative of the Utilities Department. Any existing grease generator not currently using a grease trap and/or grease interceptor shall be required to install such if future data (laboratory data and/or preventive maintenance data) show a need for waste pretreatment requirements regulated by the Water Pollution Control Division. (Ord. 20089 § 94, 10-17-17.)
