What these findings mean

Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for your health. Higher-risk findings are the ones inspectors treat as critical, because they can directly make someone sick.

• Protecting food from contaminationHigher risk

  This covers how food and supplies are stored and handled: kept covered, off the floor, and away from anything that could contaminate them. Where food is served, raw meat must be kept away from ready-to-eat food, a direct route for salmonella and E. coli.

  Recorded once on July 10, 2025. For example: Measures are taken to protect the tank, equipment and connections from becoming contaminated during storage, filling, transportation and delivery of the drinking water (C)

• PestsHigher risk

  Signs of mice, rats, cockroaches or flies, or gaps and clutter that let them get in or hide. Pests carry bacteria and can contaminate food, supplies and surfaces, so evidence of activity is treated seriously and usually triggers a follow-up visit.

  Recorded once on July 10, 2025. For example: All inlets and openings of containers used for water haulage are constructed and maintained in such a way that prevents the entry of pests or any other foreign material (C)

• Food source, labelling and allergensHigher risk

  Food and other products must come from approved sources, stay in labelled containers and be thrown out when spoiled, expired or damaged. Labelling also matters for allergies: an unlabelled container can hide an allergen.

  Recorded once on July 10, 2025. For example: Bulk containers are clearly and appropriately labelled "Potable Water" or "Drinking Water" (NC)

• Food temperature controlHigher risk

  Inspectors check that anything that has to be kept at a set temperature, such as chilled or hot food, or equipment like sterilizers, stays in its safe range and that accurate thermometers are on hand. With food, temperature problems are one of the most common causes of food poisoning.

  Recorded once on July 10, 2025. For example: A thermometer or test strip is provided to verify that the sanitizing solution is at the required concentration (NC)
