Predefined Comment: No County legal action will result from this inspection.
Inspector's notes
Observed sewage back-up at the floor drain across from steam table and below oven. There was nothing plumbed to the drain. PIC submitted a work order and the response was immediate as there was a crew working on plumbing issues elsewhere in the facility. After several attempts to snake and vacuum the drain, the plumber determined that they were dealing with a collapsed drain because the water was turning black and not draining at all. The 3 compartment sink and the handwashing sink near the 3 compartment sink were observed draining v9ery slowly at time of inspection. The plumber then snaked other floor drains in the kitchen and it led to adequate drainage at the 3 compartment sink and hand washing sinks but NOT the floor drain with sewage backup. Since it was determined that the drain was not connected to other drains in the kitchen, it was vacuumed and plugged at time of inspection, and it is going to be cemented-in according to maintenance personnel. To ensure that sewage backflow is corrected, a re-inspection is scheduled on 9/4. Corrective Action: Correct prior to re-inspection.
