Summary/Abstract: This is not a research report but rather a brief, summary description of an extensive, multi-year and multi-faceted communication research project addressing an issue of considerable importance to communities in the U.S. state of North Carolina, though the issue is common in all other states as well. The project sought to identify strategic communication approaches to encouraging proper disposal of cooking grease among selectively identified population segments. Improper disposal of cooking grease is linked to Sanitary Sewer Overflows, a problem leading to significant public health risks, environmental dangers and mounting repair costs. The case illustrates the merits of incorporating a communication component into public health research grant proposals.
