Correction: When placed in cooling or cold holding equipment, food containers in which food is being cooled shall be: (1) Arranged in equipment to provide maximum heat transfer through the container walls
- Equipment, Food-Contact Surfaces, and Utensils (corrected on site)
Observation: The food-contact surfaces of several dishes stored as clean are not clean to sight and touch.
Correction: Equipment food-contact surfaces and utensils shall be clean to sight and touch. The objective of cleaning focuses on the need to remove organic matter from food-contact surfaces so that sanitization can occur.
- Equipment Food-Contact Surfaces and Utensils/Time Temperature Control For Safety Food/Cleaning Frequency (corrected on site)
Observation: Surfaces of the can opener are not clean.
Correction: Except when dry cleaning methods are used as specified under section 4-603.11, surfaces of utensils and equipment contacting food that is not time/temperature control for safety food shall be cleaned: (1) At any time when contamination may have occurred
- Equipment/Cooking and Baking/Cleaning Frequency (corrected on site)
Observation: The microwave on the pantry/salad line is in need of cleaning.
Correction: The cavities and door seals of microwave ovens shall be cleaned at least every 24 hours by using the manufacturer's recommended cleaning procedure. Food-contact surfaces of cooking equipment must be cleaned to prevent encrustations that may impede heat transfer necessary to adequately cook food. Encrusted equipment may also serve as an insect attractant when not in use. Because of the nature of the equipment, it may not be necessary to clean cooking equipment as frequently as the equipment specified in section 4-602.11.
- Equipment and Utensils, Air-Drying Required (corrected on site)
Observation: After cleaning and sanitizing, equipment and utensils are not air-dried, adequately drained, and/or they are cloth dried before contact with food.
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

Correction: The date when the last shellstock from the container is sold or served shall be recorded on the tag or label.
- Mechanical Warewashing Equipment, Hot Water Sanitization Temperature (corrected on site)
Observation: The water temperature in the manifold servicing the high temperature warewash machine was below the minimum allowable level of 180ºF. Call for service placed during inspection

- Equipment/Good Repair and Proper Adjustment
Observation: The caulking at the bakery hand sink and the employee hand sink is/are in disrepair.
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.
- Equipment, Food-Contact Surfaces, Nonfood-Contact Surfaces, and Utensils/Clean
Observation: The nonfood-contact surface of the Traulsen 2 door uprt freezer is not kept free of an accumulation of dust, dirt, food residue, and/or other debris.
Correction: Nonfood-contact surfaces of equipment shall be kept free of an accumulation of dust, dirt, food residue, and other debris. The objective of cleaning focuses on the need to remove soil from nonfood contact surfaces so that pathogenic microorganisms will not be allowed to accumulate and insects and rodents will not be attracted.
- Poisonous or Toxic Materials/Common Name/Working Containers (corrected on site)
Observation: Working containers used for storing poisonous or toxic materials are not clearly and/or individually identified with the common name of the material.
Correction: Working containers used for storing poisonous or toxic materials such as cleaners and sanitizers taken from bulk supplies shall be clearly and individually identified with the common name of the material. It is common practice in food establishments to purchase many poisonous or toxic materials including cleaners and sanitizers in bulk containers. Working containers are frequently used to convey these materials to areas where they will be used, resulting in working containers being stored in different locations in the establishment. Identification of these containers with the common name of the material helps prevent the dangerous misuse of the contents.

Correction: Multiuse food-contact surfaces shall be: (1) Smooth
- Plumbing System/Maintained in Good Repair
Observation: A leak was observed under hand sink in kitchen prep area.
Correction: A plumbing system shall be maintained in good repair.
