Springfield Water Pollution Control Plant will be conducting grease trap inspections
throughout the City of Springfield. Section 711 of the Oregon State Plumbing Special-ty Code (PSC) states: "...an approved type grease intercepior complying with theprovisions of this section shall be instal'led in the waste line leading from sink,drains, and other fixtures, or equipment in the fol'lowing establishments: restaurants,cafes, iunch counter, cafeterias, bars, clubs; hotel, hospital, sanitarium, factory,or school kitchen, or other establishments where grease may be introduced into the
-drainage or sewage system in quantities that can effect Iine stoppage or hinder sewage-treatment or private sewage disposal..."
Your estabi ishment has been inspected and it was found that in order to comply withthe_above, you will need to install a grease interceptor. No grease intercbpiorshall be installed which has an approved rate of f'low of less lhan 20 qallons per
