Observations & Corrective Actions

16: 1700 (1-5) (6a) (6b). Observed quat sanitizer in sani-bucket at 100 ppm. Should be 200-400 ppm to effectively kill bacteria.
Corrective Actions: COS by refilling with fresh solution - 300 ppm. May want to institute plan where sani-buckets are changed out at a certain time.

49: 1770 (C) Observed seam above 3-compartment sink and floor below with build-up of soil.
Corrective Actions: As soon as possible, clean these areas and do so at a frequency to prevent build-up. Will look at during next inspection.

55: 3300 Observed construction materials against walls in dry storage and against electrical panel. (Also single service cups in box on floor).
Corrective Actions: Remove any items not necessary for food establishment day to day operations and keep areas along walls and floors clear to prevent hiding areas for pests.
