In an opening meeting with the restaurant sector, the General Director of the State Commission of Public Services of Tijuana (CESPT), Jesús García Castro, attended as a speaker at the monthly CANIRAC Tijuana breakfast.
There he had the opportunity to share details about the strategic actions carried out by the organization, in order to guarantee an efficient hydraulic and sanitary sewer infrastructure in the city.
García Castro highlighted that the Law that regulates the drinking water service in the state of Baja California establishes as a mandatory requirement for non-domestic users the regulation of their wastewater discharges, contemplating the installation of grease, oil or solid retention devices, to prevent their direct discharge into the sewers.
He commented that these devices are essential to prevent obstructions in the system, since they avoid the accumulation of sedimentable solids that could damage the sanitary infrastructure. He highlighted that, thanks to current compliance, it is possible to prevent 20 tons of grease from entering the networks each month.
For her part, the president of CANIRAC, Zaida López, thanked the organization for its willingness, highlighting that, as a sector, they have felt supported by having all their requests attended to. In addition, she called on her members to comply with current regulations, in order to continue contributing to the well-being of the community and the development of the sector.
