Upon start of what would have been a routine inspection, EHS noted a lack of hot water at one of the two hand sinks in the facility. The other hand sink and the three compartment sink were also checked, and water temperatures were noted below required temperatures at these locations. The hand sinks were measuring at 70'F, and the three compartment sink was providing water at 75'F. The hand sinks should be providing 100'F and the three compartment sink should be providing water at a temperature of 110'F. The Person in Charge contacted Building maintenance regarding the issue. It was learned that a hot water heater has recently been replaced in the building and has since failed to operate properly. The PIC of the foodservice area was not aware that the lack of hot water was still an issue as of this morning.
Per conversation with EH Supervisor, and discussion with the Person in Charge of this facility, the following steps will be taken until adequate hot water has been restored to the food service area of this facility:
1. The maintenance personnel will be installing a small hot water heater in the mop sink area of the facility that will be able to service at least one hand sink (possibly both), and the three compartment sink. Once this is completed, the EHS will be contacted and will confirm adequate hot water temperature.
2. Prior to installation and operation of the hot water heater, the facility will be operating on a limited menu. No food preparation is to be conducted in this facility, due to a lack of hot water being provided for hand washing. The operator has another location nearby in which she can prepare some food items and transport them to this facility. EHS instructed PIC that all items served from this location during this time must be pre-packaged. PIC may look into cambros or other means of hot holding items such as pizza/sandwiches. EHS and PIC discussed time as a public health control for the hot items if cambros are used. The items must either maintain an internal temperature of 135'F or higher, or be served or discarded in less than four hours from when they were removed from adequate temperature control.
Contact EHS with any questions, or once temporary hot water heater is obtained and installed. An additional copy of this report has been left with maintenance personnel for reference.

  • Critical: Water Capacity*
    Observation: The water heater serving the food service establishment is no longer fully operable.
    Correction: EHS is to confer with his/her supervisor for closure of establishment for an imminent health hazard. (See section 12 VAC 5-421-3910)
