61C-4.010: Sanitation and Safety Requirements

The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation, Division of Hotels and Restaurants hereby gives notice:
On December 4, 2012 the Division of Hotels and Restaurants received a Petition for a Routine Variance for Paragraph 4-301.12(A), 2001 FDA Food Code and subsection 61C-4.010(5), Florida Administrative Code from Building 72B located in Orlando. The above referenced F.A.C. addresses the requirement that dishwashing facilities for manually washing, rinsing and sanitizing equipment and utensils are provided. They are requesting to share the three-compartment sink located within an adjacent business (license 5805767) under the same ownership.
The Petition for this variance was published in Vol. 38/87 on December 10, 2012.
The Order for this Petition was signed on December 26, 2012 and after a complete review of the variance request, the Division finds that the application of this Rule will create a financial hardship to the food service establishment. Furthermore, the Division finds that the Petitioner meets the burden of demonstrating that the underlying statute has been achieved by the Petitioner ensuring that the dishwashing area within the International License 5805767 is maintained in a clean and sanitary manner, provided with hot and cold running water under pressure and is available during all hours of operation. If the ownership of License 5805767 changes, a written agreement must be provided to the division immediately.

A copy of the Order or additional information may be obtained by contacting:
