Protector of the Environment… Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG) and
Backflow Programs
The Emerald Coast Utilities Authority (ECUA) is working with local
businesses to promote and improve the environmental impact that
creates a positive, clean, and safe environment through our Fats, Oil,
and Grease (FOG) and Backflow Programs.
FOG is designed to reduce the number of sewer pipe blockages and
related overflows by educating residents and businesses how to
properly dispose of fats, oils, and grease. Introducing FOG into the
sewer system can result in backups and overflows on streets,
properties, and into businesses. Sewer overflows aren’t only
unsanitary and bad for the environment, the expensive cleanup and
repairs associated with the improper disposal of FOG, can lead to
increased sewer rates for all customers as well.
The Backflow Program establishes a routine cross-connection control
program to detect and prevent cross-connections that may create an
imminent and substantial danger to the public health. The goal is to
ensure protection of public health through the provision of minimum
requirements and standards for design, construction, operation, and
maintenance of our potable water system.
The ECUA encourages businesses and individuals to do their part in
maintaining a clean system and requires proper disposal of grease by
commercial Food Service Establishments (FSEs). They are required by
the Municipal Code to install interceptors and maintain them properly.
Additionally, Best Management Practices (BMPs) should be employed to
reduce the amount of grease entering the sewer.
ECUA Protector of the Environment… We Want to Recognize Your Business…
The ECUA will recognize and award Food Service Establishments (FSEs)
found in continuous compliance with the Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG)
and Backflow Programs’ guidelines, as a “Protector of the
Environment.”
The “Protector of the Environment Award” is based on FSEs who practice
clean and safe environmental standards, reduce the amount of grease
from entering into the ECUA sewer lines, an adhere to Best Management
Practices.
“Protector of the Environment” Guidelines:
*

committee. The judging will be based-on various criteria:
