Stop the F.O.G.!

Only You Can Contain the Horror!

Part FAT, part OIL and part GREASE, F.O.G. pollutes our waterways and chokes our sewers. Pouring fat, oil or grease down the drain just makes it more TERRIFYING. And running water-hot or cold-DOESN'T HELP.

You can help reduce and eliminate F.O.G. in your community.

• Oils Well That Ends Well. Always trap F.O.G. in a sealed container and dispose in the garage. Recycle large quantities of used cooking oil at your metropolitan sanitation facility.
• Pulp Fiction. Fats, oils, and grease the only troublemakers. Discard or compost rice, noodles, fruits, vegetables, egg shells and coffee grounds instead of using the garbage disposal.
• Grease Lighting. Scrape and discard drippings and scraps from plates and pans before washing them.
• Don't Goo Astray. F.O.G. includes cooking oils, lard, butter, margarine, meat fats, peanut butter, sauces, salad dressings, dairy products and other fatty foods. 

So what are you going to do to help improve your communities sewer system?
