Public sewers and drains in Kinloch Rannoch have been so badly chocked with an unsavoury mix of fat, oil, and grease that Scottish Water has made an example of the residents’ disposal misdemeanours.

The dreaded ‘fatberg’ problem has raised its ugly head even in the most picturesque of locations. In the Highland Perthshire village of Kinloch Rannoch Scottish Water says it is “working with customers and hospitality businesses to keep our water cycle running smoothly”.

The problem which can cause blockages, flooding and environmental damage, is due to an increase in fat, oil, and grease as well as other inappropriate items causing challenges in the public sewer network and septic tanks which serve Kinloch Rannoch.
