5d. Sewage disposal

PUBLIC HEALTH SIGNIFICANCE

Adequate sewage and waste water disposal is a basic requirement for all food operations. All waste water contains high levels of disease-causing micrograms. The improper disposal of waste water is often associated with disease outbreaks. Food establishments must dispose of all waste water into sanitary sewer. Both public or individual waste water treatment (septic) sewerage systems must be maintained to prevent the backup of sewage into the establishment or on to the ground outside.
