Grease traps and Lithopolis’s food service businesses
Lithopolis is a Fairfield County village best known for the Wagnalls Memorial Library, dedicated on May 30, 1925, by Mabel Wagnalls Jones in honor of her parents. Adam Wagnalls, a founder of the publisher Funk & Wagnalls, and his wife Anna were both natives of Lithopolis.
The Lithopolis Utility Department handles water and sewer in the village, so grease rules for local kitchens come from Lithopolis rather than from Columbus. New neighborhoods have grown around the older village center, and most kitchens here are small, with indoor traps rather than large outdoor tanks.
The Wagnalls Memorial hosts arts and cultural events, and a catered event can put a lot of grease through a small kitchen in one day. Ask for a full grease trap pumping after big events, and keep the service records on file.

Lithopolis grease trap requirements
- Local authority
- Lithopolis is outside the Columbus sewer contract area. Sewer service comes from the Lithopolis Utility Department, which handles water and sewer in the village, which sets the local requirements for grease interceptors.
- Pumping interval
- Confirm the required pumping interval with the village utility department before setting a schedule. Interceptor sizing here follows the Ohio Plumbing Code, and the provider can measure the tank to suggest a starting point.
- Fullness limit
- Many central Ohio sewer authorities, including Columbus and the Delaware County district, use 25 percent of the tank's depth as the point to clean. Ask the provider to measure grease and solids at every visit.
- Records
- Keep the service record and disposal manifest from every pumping for at least three years, so you can show a maintenance history if the village utility department or a health inspector asks.
