Metro Vancouver removes 50 tonnes of 'fatbergs' from Richmond, B.C., sewers - Every year, Metro Vancouver says it spends more than $2.7 million fixing grease damage in its sewer systems - eviltoast

Zheng said the grease accumulated so much over the summer that it broke off in chunks and damaged the district’s wastewater treatment plant, costing about $25,000 to repair.

“These fatbergs can really damage our infrastructure and require costly repairs. They can also cause sewer backups where you have raw sewage coming into homes and businesses.”
