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 program aims to facilitate regulatory approvals for businesses selling FOG, provide technical assistance, and collect data. The County Mayor or designee is directed to prepare this pilot program for Board review and approval, including any necessary amendments to FOG regulations, with input from the EPA and FDEP. This initiative stems from previous efforts to comply with the Federal Clean Water Act and manage sewer overflows, acknowledging potential financial hardships on businesses for FOG control device upgrades.
