minorCode 15AFacility maintenance

Official wording

Floors, walls, ceilings, not smooth, properly constructed, in disrepair, dirty surfaces

In plain English

Floors, walls, ceilings, lighting, ventilation, or garbage areas needed repair or cleaning. These are usually less urgent than food-handling problems but still need to be fixed.

minorCode 8CCleaning and sanitizing

Official wording

Improper use and storage of clean, sanitized equipment and utensils

In plain English

Dishes, equipment, or surfaces that touch food were not properly washed, rinsed, and sanitized, or sanitizer was not at the right strength. Clean surfaces help stop germs from spreading to food.

More about cleaning or sanitizing problems
minorCode 8EFood temperature

Official wording

Accurate thermometers not available or used to evaluate refrigerated or heated storage temperatures

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.

More about food kept at an unsafe temperature
criticalCode 5EContamination

Official wording

Enough refrigerated storage equipment is not present, properly designed, maintained or operated so that all potentially hazardous foods are cooled properly and stored below 45�F as required.

In plain English

Food was stored or handled in a way that could let germs or other material get into it, such as raw meat stored above ready-to-eat food or uncovered food. Cross-contamination is a common cause of foodborne illness.

minorCode 13BEmployee health and hygiene

Official wording

Garbage storage areas not properly constructed or maintained, creating a nuisance

In plain English

This covers things like hair restraints, jewelry, clean clothing, eating or drinking in food prep areas, touching ready-to-eat food with bare hands, or not having a sick-employee policy.

More about employee hygiene or health policy issues
minorCode 12CWater, plumbing, and sewage

Official wording

Plumbing and sinks not properly sized, installed, maintained; equipment and floors not properly drained

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.
