The primary mission of the Metropolitan District (MDC) is to
provide safe pure drinking water and environmentally responsible sewage
collection and treatment. The purpose of the Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG)
Program is to aid in preventing the accumulation of FOG into the District’s
sewer system thus reducing the potential for sewer overflows.
The FOG Program outlines the wastewater pretreatment
requirements for Food Service Establishments (FSE) and other commercial
facilities that discharge fats, oils and grease in their wastewater flow.
All new and existing Class III and IV FSEs that discharge fats, oils and
grease in their wastewater must comply with the
Connecticut Department of
Environmental Protection’s General Permit for the Discharge of Wastewater
Associated With Food Preparation Establishments.
