    Observation: Unwrapped or uncovered food in the Reach-in.
    Correction: Protect food from cross contamination by storing food in packages, covered containers, or wrappings.

    Observation: Chlorine sanitizing solution used was not at an acceptable concentration.
    Correction: Adjust the chlorine sanitizing solution to a level of at least 25 parts per million when the pH is at 10 or less and the water temperature is at 120°F.
