- Handwashing Sink/Using/Operation and Maintenance (corrected on site) (repeated violation)
Observation: The handwashing sink located in the bar is not maintained so that it is accessible at all times for employee use.
Correction: A handwashing sink shall be maintained so that it is accessible at all times for employee use. Facilities must be maintained in a condition that promotes handwashing and restricted for that use. Convenient accessibility of a handwashing facility encourages timely handwashing which provides a break in the chain of contamination from the hands of food employees to food or food-contact surfaces.
- Handwashing Cleanser, Availability (corrected on site)
Observation: A supply of hand cleaning liquid, powder, or bar soap is not provided at each handwashing sink (bar and pizza prep).
Correction: Each handwashing sink or group of 2 adjacent handwashing sinks shall be provided with a supply of hand cleaning liquid, powder, or bar soap.
- Poisonous or Toxic Materials/Restrictions/Presence and Use (corrected on site)
Observation: Observed a can Raid behind the bar. Establishment not currently being serviced by licensed pest control company. Raid discarded.
Correction: Only those poisonous or toxic materials that are required for the operation and maintenance of the establishment, such as for the cleaning and sanitizing of equipment and utensils and the control of insects and rodents, shall be allowed in the food establishment. This section does not apply to packaged poisonous or toxic materials that are for retail sale. The presence in the establishment of poisonous or toxic materials that are not required for the maintenance and operation of the establishment represents an unnecessary risk to both employees and consumers. Preserving food safety depends in part on the appropriate and proper storage and use of poisonous or toxic materials that are necessary to the maintenance and operation of a food establishment. Even those that are necessary can pose a hazard if they are used in a manner that contradicts the intended use of the material as described by the manufacturer on the material's label. If additional poisonous or toxic materials are present, there is an unwarranted increased potential for contamination due to improper storage (e.g., overhead spillage that could result in the contamination of food, food-contact surfaces, or food equipment) or inappropriate application.
