approved.
1 . The conditional approval of the plans for Madrona School was based upon the plans, menu and
HACCP submitted February 9,2017. Any changes to the plans, menu and HACCP submitted
February 9, 2017 without preapproval from the Health District will void this approval.

business. Based upon the menu and HACCP submitted, this facility will be classified as a medium risk,
school satellite kitchen.

drainboards at both ends. The basins of the three -compartment sink must be large enough to fit the
largest item needing to be washed.
4. An indirect waste drain (an air gap) is required for the food preparation sink, three -compartment sink,
mechanical dishwasher, walk-in freezer, hot food table, cold food table, and any equipment in which
food is placed. Please note that a direct drain to a grease trap is not considered an indirect drain even if
the grease trap is indirectly drained.
5. A prep support table with sink, item #24, is shown on the floor plan. Work tables with sinks are required
to have raised edges to prevent water drainage onto the floor during use. This table must be provided
with a raised edge or a standard NSF or equivalent listed food preparation sink with at least one integral

8. Hot water must be available to all handwash sinks within 15 seconds. The hot water for the facility must
not be used, at any plumbing fixture, for a minirnurn of 6 hours prior to the preoperational inspection.
This is required so that proper testing of the 15-second time requirement for hot water availability can be
completed.

(NSF) or equivalent for its intended use. Used and new refrigeration must be capable of holding food at
temperature of 41 OF or below.

chemical dispensers cannot be connected to the mop sink faucet. The chemical dispenser must have a
separate water connection. A 'sidekick' adaptor at the mop sink faucet is acceptable.
19. The ventilation system shall be installed and operated to meet applicable building, mechanical, and fire

A preoperational inspection is required prior to operating permit issuance and approval to open for
business. At the time of inspection the construction of the food service establishment must be complete and
all equipment must be in place and in proper operating condition. Incomplete construction or equipment
operation will result in a $180.00 re -inspection fee. Contact the Food Program office a minimum of one
week in advance to schedule an appointment for the preoperational inspection. The preoperational
inspection will ensure compliance with the Rules and Regulations of the State Board of Health for Food
Service Sanitation.
Changes or additions to the approved plans or equipment require pre -approval from the Snohomish Health
District prior to implementation of the changes.
