Compliance basis — what our packet does and doesn't claim

GreaseGrid delivers a proof packet after every scheduled service. The packet is a record of work performed — dates, photos, manifests, and hauler paperwork organized so an inspector can read it quickly. This page lists the statutes the packet references and the precise claims the packet makes, so operators and their consultants know exactly what they are (and are not) getting.

Statutes our packet references

• California Plumbing Code §1014 — the 25% rule. FOG plus settleable solids must be pumped before they exceed 25% of the device's rated capacity. Our service records document the service date and measured conditions so operators can show the rule was honored.
• 40 CFR §403.12(o) — federal pretreatment record retention. Records must be kept for a minimum of 3 years. Our packet archives the service record and manifests in that retention-ready format.
• LAMC §64.30 — LA City LASAN IWMD grease-control ordinance. Record retention is referenced up to 5 years per §64.30(C)(6). Our packet retains the documents on your behalf for the LASAN retention window.
• LA County Code Title 20 §20.36 — LA County unincorporated area, Sanitation Districts FOG program. For locations outside LA City, the packet is structured for this program's record-keeping expectations.
• LAMC §11.2.04 — enforcement and violation authority, referenced for context on fine exposure when records are missing or non-compliant. This is not a statute the packet claims to satisfy; it is the authority under which LASAN enforces the grease-control ordinance.

What the packet claims

• Service occurred on a specific date, performed by a named CDFA-registered hauler.
• Disposal went to a permitted facility, evidenced by a licensed hauler manifest.
• Maintenance records were produced and made available within 24 hours of the service.
• The record is assembled in a single PDF organized so an inspector can read the who / what / when / where quickly.

What the packet does NOT claim

• GreaseGrid does not certify your overall FOG compliance posture. The packet is a record of one service, not a facility-wide attestation.
• The packet is not a regulator-issued compliance certificate. Only the regulator can issue those.
• GreaseGrid is not the service provider of record. The licensed vendor who performed the pumping is the service provider.
• The packet does not replace the operator's underlying obligation to maintain records, train staff, post the required signage, and pump on the cadence the device and the jurisdiction require.
