No violation noted during this evaluation.01/20/2015Follow-up
Have discussed with the PIC the need to have the Silver King Sand. Prep table serviced so that food on the top portion of the prep table can remain below 41'F. PIC stated that a repair technician has been contacted to look at the unit and should be here. In the interim, we discussed that lexan bins should only be filled half full to allow for food to stay below the top rim of the prep table. PIC is to contact the Giles Co. HD once the sand. prep. table has been repaired/serviced.
