Appointments for reviews of these special plumbing systems are made using the plumbing plan review scheduler, regardless of what type of facility they are in: grease interceptors, garage catch basins, oil interceptors, car wash interceptors, sanitary dump stations, chemical systems.

It is best if the review is done at the time of the rest of a new, addition, or alteration plumbing system review. However, if the item is being installed by itself, the review may be scheduled by itself.

Water Reuse Systems of varying types may have plan review appointments made using this scheduler, either as an individual review or as part of a larger plumbing system review.

An example of a water reuse system would be a device, or series of devices that collects previously-used water from a blackwater or graywater source and treats the water so it can be recycled for use within a plumbing system, rather than being discharged to drain.
