You can now COMPLETE REPORTS ONLINE AND UPLOAD DOCUMENTS needed as proof or PRINT OUT THE REPORT, complete and return it via fax, email, mail or drop it off.    There are two changes to reporting:

1. You no longer have to submit Material Safety Data Sheets/Safety Data Sheets (MSDS/SDS) for your bioenzyme treatment.
2. You will have to submit invoices showing your grease traps, inside, outside or both have been cleaned.

Deadlines and due dates remain the same. If your cover sheet and back up documentation is not received when faxed or you do not complete the online form in its entirety, a summons will be issued. 

Fines are $250.00 for the first offense, $500.00 for the second offense and $1, 000.00 each subsequent offense. 

No follow up telephone calls, emails or letters will be sent. Please submit your report by fax (732-388-2490), email the Health Department or email David De Rosa), regular mail or drop off in Room 18.
