The California Fats, Oils, and Grease work group (Cal FOG)
was formed in 2001 as a result of increased regulatory focus
on FOG-related sanitary sewer overflows. The work group consists
of wastewater agency, regulator, consulting firm, and restaurant
and related industry representatives. The focus of the work
group is to utilize collective resources to develop FOG control
tools and to provide technical support and information to
the work group members.
 CalFOG
Mission Statement: Identify actions for reducing SSOs
that result from blockages caused by fats, oil and grease
in wastewater collection systems, and implement those actions
to the extent feasible by a stakeholder group which includes
wastewater agencies, regulators, restaurant and other industry
associations.
The work group is formed within Tri-TAC,
a technical advisory committee representing municipal wastewater
management agencies. Tri-TAC members include the California
Association of Sanitation Agencies (CASA), the League of California
Cities, and the California Water Environment Association (CWEA).
