SUDP invoices must be paid prior to December 31 of the invoice year. Additional fees at the new year's rate may be assessed and payment required for any prior-year invoices.

For information on standard fees, see Public Works / SUDP on the Building and Land Development Fees webpage.

Before installing or replacing a grease interceptor, consult these resources:

• GI sizing worksheet (Requires Microsoft Excel Version 2003 or later)

• Sample grease interceptor designs: PDF or DWG

Grease interceptors will need a plumbing and an SUDP review.

In a restaurant or commercial kitchen, a change to the type of cuisine served, an increase in seating capacity, or a change in the cooking appliances could all have an impact on grease interceptor sizing.

For projects that require a grease interceptor, make sure to connect all fixtures in the kitchen and food prep areas to the grease waste sewer line, which is then directed to the appropriately sized grease interceptor, prior to connecting to the domestic sanitary sewer system for the building. Bar areas, beverage stations, restrooms, and any other area that is not in the kitchen or intended for food prep should NOT be directed to the grease waste sewer line, but rather connected directly to the domestic sewer system for the building.
