Generators of regulated waste are responsible for the waste from the time it is created until disposal is completed. Therefore, it is essential for generators to use qualified contractors to pump out waste properly, clean grease traps completely so they function properly, and transport the waste safely to the ultimate disposal facility. The Georgia Environmental Protection Division manages the system to register FOG transporters. The Southeastern FOG Alliance maintains a list of state-registered transporters on their website: http://southeasternfogalliance.org From their homepage, click on "Waste Transporter" and then click on "State of Georgia In Compliance Data Base"
Grease Transporters
All commercial transporters of grease disposal are required to register with the Environmental Protection Division (EPD) and obtain a FOG number to operate in Georgia. Athens-Clarke County requires commercial businesses to use a registered grease transporter to maintain and clean grease traps and systems.
