Sec. 470.313. - Laundry wastes.

Effluent or drainage from a washing machine in a residence or multiple dwelling may be disposed of by discharge directly into the septic tank or by discharge into a separate interceptor. If used, a separate interceptor shall have a minimum capacity of 250 gallons, baffled and vented as specified in Section 470.305 (e), and a minimum absorption area of 100 square feet for the first two bedrooms and 25 additional square feet for each additional bedroom. No separate interceptor for laundry wastes may receive waste flow from kitchen fixtures or be used as a grease trap. Use of a separate interceptor does not reduce the minimum requirements of this Chapter for septic tank effective capacity or absorption field, area or bed.
