Dear Mr. Ataman:
Your plans have been reviewed with the Rules and Regulations of the State Board of Health, and with
the policies of the Snohomish Health District. With the addition of the following conditions, the plans
are approved.
1 . The conditional approval of the plans for Canarino Gelato was based upon the plans, menu
and HACCP submitted February 2, 2015. Any changes to these items will void this approval.
2. The Health District operating permit application process must be completed prior to opening for
business. This facility will be classified as a low risk food establishment with 51-150 seats.
3. Three -compartment sinks must be NSF or equivalent listed with integral drainboards at both ends.
The basins of the three -compartment sink must be large enough to fit the largest item needing to bt,
washed.
4. An indirect waste drain (an air gap) is required for the food preparation sink, three -compartment
sink, mechanical dishwasher, ice machine, running water dipper well, espresso machine, 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. Food preparation sinks must be NSF or equivalent listed with at least one integral drainboard.
6. A horizontal separation of at least 16 inches or a vertical partition 16 inches in height is required
between the front handwash sink and both the dipper well and the waffle cone production area and
between the back handwash sink and the prep sink.
7. When splashguards (partitions and/or walls) are provided on both sides of a handwash sink the
distance between the splashguards must be at least 18 inches apart (shoulder width) to allow
proper access to the handwash sink.
8. Water heaters must be of sufficient size to provide hot water to dishwasher and/or scullery sinks
and at the same time provide hot water to all handwash sinks.
9. 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 minimum 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.
10. All food service equipment, both new and used, must be listed by the National Sanitation
Foundation (NSF) or equivalent for its intended use. Used and new refrigeration must be capable of
holding food at temperature of 41 "F or below.
11. Used equipment is subject to onsite inspection to determine acceptability for use in the proposed
food service establishment. Used equipment must be clean, in proper operating condition, and in
good repair. Used refrigeration must be capable of holding at a temperature of 41'F or below.

be surfaced with a durable, nonabsorbent, easily cleanable material. Expansion joints, seams, saw
cuts and the like in concrete floors in all areas, including customer seating areas, must be filled and

Additionally 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 codes.
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 $168.00 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.
