The Western States Alliance goal is to create consistent quality standards for customers, companies and municipalities using Oregon’s Preferred Pumper Program (PPP) as a model. The Preferred Pumper Program is for grease trap/interceptor pump-out companies that meet certain criteria established by regional municipalities.
Training on Cleaning – To help member companies clarify the grease removal device cleaning standards of the PPP.
Training on Inspection – to educate food service establishments, property owners and property managers on the cleaning standards and what to look for to ensure proper service is rendered.
The PPP includes standards for a Hydro-mechanical Grease Interceptor (HGI) and standards for a Gravity Grease Interceptor (GGI).
Once an interceptor is cleaned, the pumper fills out a Preferred Pumper Program FOG Pump Out Report (sample at right). You can click on the graphic to enlarge the view, or download a PDF copy.
