Inspection findings

Inspection date

Type

  • Equipment/Good Repair and Proper Adjustment
    Observation: The bulk ice machine was observed not properly functioning and in need of repair.
    Correction: Equipment shall be maintained in a state of repair and condition that meets the requirements specified under Parts 4-1 [Materials for Construction and Repair] and 4-2 [Design and Construction]. Proper maintenance of equipment to manufacturer specifications helps ensure that it will continue to operate as designed. Failure to properly maintain equipment could lead to violations of the associated requirements of the Code that place the health of the consumer at risk. For example, refrigeration units in disrepair may no longer be capable of properly cooling or holding potentially hazardous (time/temperature control for safety) foods at safe temperatures.
  • Handwashing Sink/Using/Operation and Maintenance (corrected on site)
    Observation: Sanitizer bucket observed improperly stored in the handsink by the 3-compartment sink.
    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.
  • Liquid Wastes and Rainwater/Nonsewage
    Observation: The condenser in the walk-in refrigerator was observed leaking and pooling water in the floor.
    Correction: Condensate drainage and other nonsewage liquids and rainwater shall be drained from point of discharge to disposal according to law. Liquid food wastes and rainwater can provide a source of bacterial contamination and support populations of pests. Proper storage and disposal of wastes and drainage of rainwater eliminate these conditions.
  • Hand Drying Provision (corrected on site) (repeated violation)
    Observation: Disposable paper towels observed not properly provided at the handsink next to the 3-compartment sink.
    Correction: Each handwashing sink or group of adjacent handwashing sinks shall be provided with: (A) Individual, disposable towels
  • Intensity/Lighting
    Observation: The light in the downstairs walk-in refrigerator was observed not working.
    Correction: The light intensity shall be at least 108 lux (10 foot candles) at a distance of 75 cm (30 inches) above the floor, in the walk-in refrigeration units and dry food storage areas and in other areas and rooms during periods of cleaning. Properly distributed light makes the need for cleaning apparent by making accumulations of soil conspicuous.
  • Cleaning, Frequency and Restrictions (repeated violation)
    Observation: Mop sink basin observed in need of cleaning.
    Correction: Physical facilities shall be cleaned as often as necessary to keep them clean. Cleaning of the physical facilities is an important measure in ensuring the protection and sanitary preparation of food. A regular cleaning schedule should be established and followed to maintain the facility in a clean and sanitary manner.

  • Sanitizing Solutions, Testing Devices
    Observation: A quaternary test kit that accurately measures the concentration of the sanitizing solution is not provided.
    Correction: A test kit or other device that accurately measures the concentration in mg/L of sanitizing solutions shall be provided. Testing devices to measure the concentration of sanitizing solutions are required for 2 reasons: 1. The use of chemical sanitizers requires minimum concentrations of the sanitizer during the final rinse step to ensure sanitization
  • Equipment and Utensils, Air-Drying Required
    Observation: After cleaning and sanitizing, equipment and utensils are not air-dried, adequately drained.
    Correction: After cleaning and sanitizing, equipment and utensils: (A) Shall be air-dried or used after adequate draining as specified in the first paragraph of 40 CFR 180.940 Tolerance exemptions for active and inert ingredients for use in antimicrobial formulations (food-contact surface sanitizing solutions), before contact with food
