Find licensed FOG compliance contractors
Maine's FOG compliance framework is governed by the Maine Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and enforced through the Maine Plumbing Code and local sewer use ordinances. Commercial food service operators in municipalities served by public sewers are required to install hydromechanical or gravity grease interceptors and maintain regular pump-out schedules — typically every 60 to 90 days — with service records retained for municipal and DEP inspection. Grease trap waste transported in Maine must be handled by licensed septage haulers registered with the Maine DEP, who are required to deliver waste to permitted septage receiving facilities.
Portland, Maine's largest city and a nationally recognized culinary destination, maintains an active FOG pretreatment program through Portland Water District, requiring commercial kitchens to document and submit pump-out manifests for compliance review. South Portland, Augusta, and Bangor have implemented similar programs under the state's pretreatment guidelines.
