It appears that we have legal problems with collecting waste vegetable oil in California. A friend began collecting all of the WVO of a local restaurant. The restaurant told their rendering pick up service that their services were no longer needed. The rendering company then reported my friend to the Meat & Poultry Inspection Division of the California Department of Food and Agriculture. This branch registers and monitors transporters of inedible kitchen grease. The branch contacted my friend and told him he had to have a rendering license ($800 per year) or if he was transporting for a rendering company, then he needed a $75 license per vehicle and must appropriately label the vehicle. They also informed him that they would prosecute him if he continued.
Here is the government website http://www.cdfa.ca.gov/ahfss/mpi/ This looks like a major problem in California and perhaps in some other states. Anybody have any ideas?
