Inspector's notes
Observed at mop sink by back door a not-in-use chemical dispenser that is directly connected to a faucet with an AVB. Please have a separate water line installed upstream from the AVB for the chemical dispenser in order to allow the AVB to operate without being under constant pressure. The faucet with the AVB should be able to be used independently of the chemical dispenser. This will prevent chemicals from being back syphoned into the clean water supply. PIC disconnected at the time of inspection. Also observed at the three compartment sink in the sampling station kitchen to have a drainage pipe to the floor sink missing the 1 inch air gap. Discussed with PIC to include a 1 inch gap of air between the drainage pipe and the floor sink to avoid back syphoning of contaminates. PIC sawed off drainage pipe and included the 1 inch air gap at the time of inspection. Corrective Action: Corrected at time of inspection.
