| FOG Program |
 |
| When FOG (fats, oils and grease) is discharged to the sewer, it cools and accumulates on the sidewalls of the sewer pipes. Over time, this accumulation of grease restricts the flow and causes blockages in the sewer which may result in overflowing manholes or basement backups. WSSC is Partnering with the Restaurant Association of Maryland to help the food service industry understand the problems associated with FOG discharges and to provide business owners assistance managing FOG correctly through the use of Best Management Practices (BMPs). |
