In an effort to reduce the potential for Sanitary Sewer Overflows,(SSO's) the Public Works Staff of The Town of Mayodan, N.C. has compiled the following information to help educate our water and sewer customer concerning the best management practice for the disposal of household Fats, Oils and Greases, (FOG's).
Each year thousand of gallons of untreated sewage are spilled from collection systems throughout the state of North Carolina because of poor management practices in commercial as well as residential disposal of FOG's.
FOG's introduced to sanitary sewers will result in substantial accumulation to the point of blockage and result in overflow of untreated sewage.
Each reported SSO could result in our community being fined by the Division of Water Quality. Those fines as cost to the Utility must be paid from user fees.
It is the goal of the Utility to have no SSO's to report from our collection system. This will be possible only with the help of our customers. Your cooperation will be appreciated. If you have any question please contact Mr. Clifford Ellington, Director of Public Works, cellington@townofmayodan.com .
