Oill interceptor at fire station

Question

Is it the intent of section 1003.4 to require an oil and sand interceptor for a fire truck wash out station connected to the City sanitary sewer system.

Answer Published 10/21/2014 at 2:35 PM

This is a judgement call by the Building Official. While an
interceptor may not be required for ordinary vehicle
washing, if they are pressure washing undercarriages or
performing vehicle maintenance, an interceptor might be
called for.
