Page 5 <br /> 32. A concrete (sealed or not) finish is not approved in: the walk-in coolers; within 3 <br /> feet of a bar or buffet; within 3 feet of a janitor sink; in restrooms or in any food <br /> prep or service area. <br /> 33. The walls and ceilings in the food preparation, utensil washing, within 3 feet of a <br /> janitorial sink and toilet room areas must be smooth, durable, non-absorbent, and <br /> easily cleanable such as stainless steel, ceramic tile, or fiberglass reinforced <br /> panels (FRP). In areas where paint is permittable (i.e. ceilings and soffits), the <br /> finish shall be light in color, smooth, durable, and easily cleanable (e.g. high gloss <br /> enamel). The side of the pillar adjacent to the food island will need a more <br /> durable finish to at least 2 ft. above the counter top for splash. This was <br /> mentioned in an email to you on 10/6/15 to utilize either ceramic tile, FRP or <br /> stainless in this splash zone for cleanability. This was not mentioned in your <br /> recent submittal. Please incorporate into the design. The pillar that is at <br /> least 5 ft away can be just washable paint. <br /> 34. The floors in the food preparation, food storage, utensil washing, within 3 feet of a <br /> janitorial sink and toilet rooms must be of a smooth durable material with an <br /> integral coved base at the wall/floor junctures. Approve flooring surfaces include <br /> ceramic tile, quarry tile, and terrazzo. Tile shall be installed with an epoxy or other <br /> water-resistant grout. <br /> 35. The grout on wall tile must have a penetrating sealer applied, including walls <br /> in toilet rooms in splash zones or where wet fixtures are located. <br /> 36. The floor in and about three foot peripheral area of the salad bar, buffet table, or <br /> bar must be smooth, easily cleanable, and non-absorbent. Provide a transition <br /> strip between different floor coverings (example: quarry tile to carpet). <br /> 37. If textured tile is used, it may only be installed in walk ways, not under equipment, <br /> cabinetry sinks or in walk in cooler units. <br /> 38. Perforated or fissured drop lay-in ceiling panels are not acceptable. Provide <br /> durable, washable ceiling panels, such as vinyl-clad panels in the toilet rooms or a <br /> smooth, washable painted ceiling. <br /> 39. Outside garbage and refuse containers, including compactors, must be stored on a <br /> smooth and non-absorbent surface. <br /> Food Protection <br /> 40. Food on display must be protected from potential contamination from <br /> coughs, sneezes, and improper handling through the installation of properly <br /> constructed and installed food shields, the use of packaged food items or <br /> other effective means of protection. <br /> 41. Suitable utensils (e.g. tongs, ladles, spatulas, scoops, single service papers, etc.) <br /> must be provided to avoid manual handling dispensed food items. Between uses <br /> of food dispensing, utensils must be stored in an appropriate manner. <br /> BARE HAND CONTACT OF READY-TO-EAT FOODS IS PROHIBITED. <br />
