Oil and Grease Program- The City of Sanford Utility Department recently completed a Residential Fats Oil and Grease educational outreach board that is on display near the Utility Customer Service window. The “Fat Free Sewers” board is intended to relay the importance of proper cooking grease disposal in the home in order to reduce grease build-up and sewage overflows in the City’s sewer system. The Utility Department hopes that by educating the City residents that the number of residential grease blockages and overflows in the City will be greatly reduced. The display board is portable and will also be used at community outreach events throughout the area to spread the word. In addition, a kid friendly experiment demonstrating the detrimental effects of grease in the sewer system can be performed to further educate children.
