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. This initiative stems from previous resolutions and ordinances aimed at controlling FOG discharge to prevent sanitary sewer overflows. The pilot program will facilitate expedited regulatory approvals for businesses selling FOG, provide technical assistance, and collect data for potential regulatory reform. The County Mayor or designee is directed to prepare the program for Board review and approval, including any necessary changes to state or county regulations, with input from the EPA and FDEP. A report detailing the proposed program and any necessary amendments is due within 90 days of the resolution's effective date.
