Health Inspection Information

The inspection history for the business you selected is displayed below. Each inspection may have zero or more violations. A health inspection report is a "snapshot" of the day and time of the inspection. On any given day, an establishment could have more or fewer violations than noted here. Inspections are based on regulations to eliminate risk factors for illness or injury. Every violation is coded indicating the degree of risk in causing an illness or injury.

  • Critical, Major, or Foodborne Illness Risk Factor Violations: These violations are more likely than other violations to contribute to illness or injury. Inspectors work with operators to make sure that these violations are corrected whenever feasible before they leave the establishment. A re-inspection may be scheduled to verify compliance.
  • Non-Critical, Minor or Good Retail Practice Violations: These violations are not directly related to the cause of illness or injury, but if uncorrected, could negatively affect the operation of the facility, such as maintenance and cleanliness.

Please Note: Tri-County converted to a new database in July 2013.

16 - Foodborne Illness Risk Factors
Food contact surfaces; cleaned & sanitized
Inspector Comments: An employee at the ware washing area did not follow the three step procedure of wash, rinse and sanitize for cleaning the spatulas. The person in charge stated that food contact surfaces (spoons and spatulas) were cleaned once daily instead of once in 4 hours. Corrective Action: Manual dish washing procedures were discussed with the operator. The inspector informed the operator that food contact surfaces should be cleaned throughout the day at least every 4 hours.
