Kelly stated the lights do have light shields, but they are not installed at this time.

There are two hand sinks which have the drain pipe above the bottom shelf. There shall be not food or food items stored under neat the drain pipes. A trash can, wiping cloth bucket or chemicals can be stored below the drain pipes.

The 3-compartment sink will have a designated compartment (the rinse or sanitize compartment) which will be used for a prep sink. The sink must be wash, rinsed and sanitized before and after use as a prep sink. A sign will be posted stating this.

The 3-compartment sink needs to be sealed to the wall and the gaps between the wall and the duckboard must be eliminated.
