Commercial trade waste contains large amounts of fats and oils, which can solidify in sewers and cause blockages. If your business discharges commercial trade waste, then you will need a commercial trade waste consent.
It is an offence to discharge commercial waste without a commercial waste consent. Water authority’s conduct a monitoring program to identify offenders. Severe penalties apply, including fines and possible criminal prosecution for breaches.
What do you need to do?
Commercial trade waste discharge is only permitted after a written application has been received by Water authority’s and the trade waste is assessed as acceptable.
For the waste to be acceptable it must first be pre-treated in a food and oil interceptor of a sufficient size for the volume of waste water generated by your business activities.
The size and type of your business needs to be taken into account when planning your trade waste requirements, i.e. You own a Restaurant you’ll need to supply
The number of kitchen fixtures that generate wastewater (such as sinks and dishwashers)
The council registered seating capacity.
MSDS of products used
