The Department of Public Works enhances quality of life for residents and visitors through well-planned, environmentally responsible, and cost-effective infrastructure investments. Committed to high-quality service delivery, the department supports public health, safety, environmental stewardship, and economic growth while advancing the Mayor’s vision for the City of Jackson.
The Food Service Establishment (FSE), at its expense, must maintain and clean all grease control equipment serving its facility. Interceptors must be completely pumped out at least once every three months, or more frequently as required, to meet the intent of the FOG Control Program. Grease traps must be completely cleaned more frequently, with weekly cleaning recommended.
The City of Jackson has developed minimum standards for FSE grease control devices. Unless otherwise approved in writing by the Public Works Department, grease interceptors and grease traps should be constructed and installed in accordance with the City of Jackson’s Grease Control Device Standards.
