business can cause:

sewage to back up in your home, or your neighbors home;
C Raw
sewage to flow into parks, yards, streets, and into area streams;

to sewer lines, thus increasing repair and maintenance by the Gwinnett
County Department of Public Utilities, which can cause higher bills for
water and sewer customers.
