Commercial and Grease Trap Services: the short answer
Restaurants and food businesses in Miami-Dade need a County Fats, Oils and Grease (FOG) discharge permit and a grease interceptor that is pumped and reported on schedule. Commercial sites on septic in a wellfield protection area also need a DERM wellfield permit.
Grease interceptor cleaning is reported to the County through its Grease Discharge Operating report, and the hauler must hold a County liquid waste transporter permit. Commercial septic systems have their own state operating permit, renewed every year.
The County is also extending sewer to commercial septic properties through its Commercial Corridors Program, which covers more than 1,000 commercial properties across five corridors.

Questions
How often must a restaurant grease interceptor be pumped?
On the schedule its County permit and the facility's use require. For most permit classes each cleaning is reported to the County on a liquid waste manifest by the 20th of that month.
Is my business eligible for County sewer extension?
Ask Miami-Dade Water and Sewer whether your property is in one of the five Commercial Corridors, which cover more than 1,000 commercial properties.
