Grease trap regulations:
Grease trap regulations are usually overseen by water supply companies in larger metropolitan cities. In rural areas, regulation is overseen by local councils. States, territories, urban and rural areas within Australia are regulated by different water authorities.
Before being allowed to discharge trade waste to sewer you will need a trade waste agreement with your local authority. This includes obtaining formal approval from that authority.
