MANHATTAN ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE

Our team is conducting private grease-interceptor checks across Midtown restaurants right now. Under Title 15, Section 19-11 of the Rules of the City of New York, letting your floor interceptors cross the strict 25% grease accumulation threshold exposes your establishment to enforcement action.

The maximum penalty for not complying with NYC DEP grease rules is $10,000 per day, per violation, and grease backups can lead to Health Department sewage violations and closure of your restaurant until it passes reinspection.

Missed pickups, lost paper records and unpredictable scheduling leave kitchens exposed. Initialize your private compliance route file below to keep your interceptor on a documented biweekly schedule.
