PILOT PROGRAM - SALE OF FATS, OILS, AND GREASE (FOG)

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-07-21 · resolution

Miami-Dade County is exploring a pilot program for the sale of Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG) for reuse as biofuel or other purposes. The Board of County Commissioners directed the County Mayor or designee to prepare this program for review and approval. The program aims to facilitate FOG sales by expediting regulatory approvals, providing technical assistance, and collecting data. It will also determine necessary changes to state law or county regulations. The Recreation, Tourism, and Resiliency Committee forwarded this item to the Board with a favorable recommendation. The initiative stems from efforts to comply with a Consent Decree related to sanitary sewer overflows and to address potential financial hardships on businesses required to upgrade FOG control devices.
