Handwashing sink was covered with boxes of takeout supplies and a stack of water bottles was n front of the hand sink rendering inaccessible. Products were moved during the inspection. Ensure that the hand sink is accessible and used during operation of the truck.

Official wording
Discontinue using undrained ice as a cooling medium for water-impervious beverage containers for special event stand.
Inspector’s notes
Ice coolers with water bottles were out front and the lip contact side of the bottles were in many situations buried within the ice itself. The staff rearranged the bottles so the lip contact surface was resting above the ice.
In plain English
Food was not kept cold enough, hot enough, cooled fast enough, or cooked or reheated to the right temperature. Bacteria grow quickly in the "danger zone" between 41°F and 135°F, which makes this one of the most important food-safety checks.

Official wording
Sewage, including liquid waste, must be conveyed to the point of disposal through an approved sanitary sewage system.
Inspector’s notes
Melted ice from the coolers was being drained directly onto the street. Discontinue this process and instead use the mop sink for disposal of all grey water.
In plain English
The business had issues with hot or cold running water, plumbing, drains, backflow prevention, or sewage disposal. Some of these, like no hot water, can force a temporary closure until fixed.
