Owner Responsibility

All property owners are required to use Best Management Practices to prevent FOG from entering the sewer system.
 
Commercial property owners are responsible for installing and maintaining a GI, and ensuring proper operation to prevent FOG from entering the sewer system.

Minimum GGI Maintenance Requirements
  • Pump GIs a minimum of one time per three months (quarterly) by a registered pumping contractor
  • Pumping intervals shall be adjusted such that the GI has no more than 25% solids/grease at any one time
  • Maintain records on-site (not at corporate headquarters, etc.) of all maintenance and hauling activities for a minimum of three years
GI Pumping Companies
Pumping contractors, or waste grease transporters, must be registered with the State of Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE).  

It is the responsibility of the owner to contact a registered contractor for waste grease transporter services.
