FOG / Grease Interceptor Service Records — Los Angeles
Keep grease-interceptor pump-out and maintenance records to satisfy LA Sanitation's FOG program and Industrial Wastewater Permit.
What it is. Recurring cleaning/pump-out of the grease interceptor with retained manifests, as required by the FOG program and your Industrial Wastewater Permit.
Who issues/enforces it. LA Sanitation (Bureau of Sanitation) (City layer).
When you need it. Ongoing, per your interceptor's maintenance schedule; LA Sanitation inspects for compliance.
How to comply. Use a licensed hauler; keep dated service manifests on site.
Cadence. Per interceptor maintenance requirements — commonly quarterly, but based on size/loading (⟢ VERIFY the cadence set for your facility/permit).
What SpoonSeal tracks. The document(s) you upload for this requirement, with automatic renewal/expiration tracking (Current, Due Soon, Expired). Where the city publishes health-inspection results (e.g., NYC and Chicago), SpoonSeal syncs them automatically; elsewhere they can be added manually.
