Colorado HB 1125 regulates the collection, transportation, and disposal of trap grease and yellow grease. Persons, facilities, and vehicles engaged in the collection, transportation, storage, processing, or disposal of grease must register with the Department of Public Health and Environment and post a
surety bond or “other debt instrument” as financial assurance. The bond secures the remediation of any harm to the environment or health that resulted from noncompliant dumping or disposal of the grease. The new law became effective on August 11, 2010.
