Staying in the loop has never been easier 💧

Happy Thanksgiving from Leucadia Wastewater District🍂

Are you frying your turkey this holiday season? If so, you might need to dispose of a large amount of cooking oil.

Your first instinct might be to dump the oil, either outside or down the drain, but both of these options can have negative environmental effects.

Virtual Tour Series Coming Soon🎥

While we miss hosting you at our headquarters in La Costa, we love showing you how our team keeps our sewer operations running 24 hours a day through our videos. Our videos explain how our pump stations work right below our streets, how we recycle water to be reused to irrigate a local golf course, and highlight the team that makes it happen.

With the holidays approaching, there’s sure to be lots of cooking with plenty of oil, so be sure to keep a lid on it—a FOG can lid that is. The correct way to dispose of Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG) is by letting them cool, pouring them in a can, sealing the can with a lid, then throwing it in the trash. Pouring FOG down your drain can potentially cause a sewer backup in your home and may lead to a sewer spill.

It is about taking action to tackle the global sanitation crisis and achieve Sustainable Development Goal 6: water and sanitation for all by 2030.
