Violation descriptions and comments

Oct 12, 2009

**CDC Risk Factor Violation 06 C**: 2-301.14 When to Wash.C
• Employees not washing hands as often / when necessary. At start of inspection, employees prepping several cases of chicken – after
handling raw chicken and moving to various locations, employees did not wash hands prior to starting new task – cleaning sinks.
FOOD EMPLOYEES shall clean their hands and exposed portions of their arms as specified
under § 2-301.12 immediately before engaging in FOOD PREPARATION including working with exposed FOOD, clean EQUIPMENT and UTENSILS, and
unwrapped SINGLE-SERVICE and SINGLE- USE ARTICLES and:
(A) After touching bare human body parts other than clean hands and clean, exposed portions
of arms;
(B) After using the toilet room;
(C) After caring for or handling SERVICE ANIMALS or aquatic animals as specified in ¶
2-403.11(B);
(D) Except as specified in ¶ 2-401.11(B), after coughing, sneezing, using a handkerchief or
disposable tissue, using tobacco, eating, or drinking;
(E) After handling soiled EQUIPMENT or UTENSILS;
(F) During FOOD PREPARATION, as often as necessary to remove soil and contamination and to prevent cross contamination when changing tasks;
(G) When switching between working with raw FOOD and working with READY-TO-EAT FOOD;
(H) Before putting on gloves for working with FOOD; and
(I) After engaging in other activities that contaminate the hands.
**CDC Risk Factor Violation 21 A**: WFC 3501.17 and 3-501.18 Ready to eat potentially hazardous food prepared on-site or opened from a
commercial container is being held for more than 24 hours without being marked with an expiration date.
• Ready to eat items in need of date marking – par cooked chicken and other items, etc.
Ready-to-eat, potentially hazardous food prepared and held refrigerated at 5°C (41°F) or less, for more than 24 hours in a food establishment
shall be marked at the time of preparation to indicate that the food shall be consumed or sold within 7 calendar days or less from the day that
the food is prepared, including the day of preparation.
Violation 37 E: 3-305.11 Food Storage.
• Several uncovered food storage containers.
• Rice bin stored under “dirty” portion of four compartment sinks.
• Some “nesting” of containers in walk-in cooler.
(A) Except as specified in ¶¶ (B) and (C), FOOD shall be protected from contamination by
storing the FOOD:
(1) In a clean, dry location;
(2) Where it is not exposed to splash, dust, or other contamination; and
(3) At least 15 cm (6 inches) above the floor.
(B) FOOD in PACKAGES and working containers may be stored less than 15 cm (6 inches)
above the floor on case lot handling EQUIPMENT as specified under § 4-204.122.
(C) Pressurized BEVERAGE containers, cased FOOD in waterproof containers such as bottles
or cans, and milk containers in plastic crates may be stored on a floor that is clean and not
exposed to floor moisture
Violation 37 N: 3-307.11 Miscellaneous Sources of Contamination.
• Raw meats stored in chest freezer are in direct contact with one another as well as the sides of the freezer. Some sort of barrier is
needed (food grade bags?) and they should be stored by species. Corrected at time of inspection.
• Prepping raw chicken directly next to ice machine is not a good practice as the ice is a ready-to-eat item. Ice machine is closed, but be
sure to prep chicken at the far end of the prep table and keep machine closed for the duration of the preparation.
• Employees prepping produce at dining table. When busy the food is just left to sit there. This type of prep should be done during slow
times and put away when it gets busy.
FOOD shall be protected from contamination that may result from a factor or source not specified under Subparts 3-301 - 3-306.
Violation 45 U: 4-501.11 Good Repair, Proper Adjustment, and Operation.
• Chest freezer in need of repair / replacement.
(A) EQUIPMENT shall be maintained in a state of repair and condition that meets the requirements specified under Parts 4-1 and 4-2.
(B) EQUIPMENT components such as doors, seals, hinges, fasteners, and kick plates shall be
kept intact, tight, and adjusted in accordance with manufacturer’s specifications.
(C) Cutting or piercing parts of can openers shall be kept sharp to minimize the creation of
metal fragments that can contaminate FOOD when the container is opened.
(D) EQUIPMENT shall be used and operated in accordance with the manufacturers’ instructions
and as listed and tested unless APPROVED by the REGULATORY AUTHORITY.
**Critical Violation 53 T**: 6-501.15 Cleaning Maintenance Tools, Preventing Contamination.C
• Mop / utility sink used for food prep (raw chicken). Most sinks were also being used as well. The only sink approved for use as food prep
is the sanitize portion of the 4-comp sink, provided that a barrier is used. After use it must be thoroughly cleaned and sanitized. Be
sure to only take out small amounts at a time for preparation. Operator states that he is considering an overhead ice machine for the soda
and then filling that spot with a food prep sink. This would be a great solution.
FOOD PREPARATION sinks, handsinks, and WAREWASHING EQUIPMENT may not be used for the cleaning of maintenance tools, the preparation or holding
of maintenance materials, or the
disposal of mop water and similar liquid wastes.

Four-compartment sink - Ecolab quat sanitizer - 200ppm + single-compartment mop / utility sink.

The operator is responsible for food safety by actively managing Foodborne Illness Risk Factors. It is very important for operators to practice
"active managerial control" to prevent these risk factors occurring in their food service establishments.
Reacting to inspection findings in the short term, without a plan to maintain long term control of risk factors, will not achieve the level of
food safety needed in licensed food service establishments.
The term "active managerial control" means the establishment operator's responsibility for developing and implementing food safety management
systems to prevent, eliminate, or reduce the occurrence of Foodborne Illness Risk Factors.
One or more of the following categories of Foodborne Illness Risk Factors are repeat violations from the last routine or complaint follow-up
inspection of this establishment:
Foodborne Illness Risk Factor Categories: Violation Number:
Employee Health (2);(3)
Good Hygienic Practices (4);(5)
Prevention of Contamination of Food from Hands (6);(7);(8)
Approved Food Sources (9);(10);(11);(12)
Protection from Contamination (13);(14);(15)
Time and Temperature Control of (16);(17);(18);(19);(20);(21);(22)
Potentially Hazardous Food
Control of these risk factors may be achieved through "active managerial control" using one or a combination of the following methods:
Risk Control Plans;
Standard Operating Procedures;
Buyer Specifications;
Menu Modification;
HACCP Plans; and
Equipment/Facility Modification
Establishments that do not establish long term control of foodborne illness risk factors will be assessed reinspection fees. Charging fees for
reinspections provides more program equity in assessing the costs of these inspections to those establishments receiving the service.
Wisconsin Food Code fact sheets can be used as a resource to establish needed foodborne illness risk factor control plans.

* Per discussion be sure that food prep is done in the sanitize compartment of the four-compartment sink with a liner. Much food prep is
being done here and space is rather limited. May want to consider an automatic overhead ice machine for the soda dispenser and installing a
designated food prep sink in the ice machine location.
