- 07. Do food handlers ensure that food is protected from contamination (unless noted elsewhere)(Critical)?
- Food preparation (raw meat slicing) was occurring on the dish pit surface beside the dishwasher.Meat was inspected for visible contaminants - no concern noted.

- 1) The bar glasswasher was dispensing chlorine at a concentration approximately 10 ppm.2) The chlorine dishwasher was dispensing chlorine at approximately 50 ppm.It is suspected that a change in chemical is the main reason (bulk solution has a lower concentration of hypochlorite).REQUIREMENT: Do not use the bar glasswasher until it is repaired. Relocate glasses to the dishwasher.Service the dishwasher and/or obtain hypochlorite at a higher concentration - whichever will allow the machine to dispense chlorine at 100 ppm.
