- Petitions and Dispositions Regarding Rule Variance or Waiver (3)
-
On August 6, 2020 the Division of Hotels and Restaurants received a Petition for an Emergency Variance for Subparagraph 61C-1.004(1)(a), Florida Administrative Code, Paragraph 5-202.11(A), 2017 FDA Food Code, Paragraph 4-301.12(A), 2017 FDA Food Code, Paragraph 61C-4.010(5), Florida Administrative Code, Section 5-203.13, 2017 FDA Food Code, Paragraph 61C-4.010(7) Florida Administrative Code and Paragraph 61C-4.010(6), Florida Administrative Code from CENTRAL FLORIDA TASTY AMERICAN GRILL INC located in Orlando. The above referenced F.A.C. addresses the requirement that each establishment have an approved plumbing system installed to transport wastewater; and that each establishment has at least one service sink provided for the cleaning of mops or similar cleaning tools and the disposal of mop water. They are requesting to utilize holding tanks to collect wastewater at the handwash and 3-compartment sinks and to share the mop sink and restroom facilities with another food service establishment on the same premise.
The Petition for this variance was published in Vol. 46/154 on August 7, 2020. The Order for this Petition was signed and approved on August 17, 2020. 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 the wastewater holding tank for the handwash sink is emptied at a frequency as to not create a sanitary nuisance; and potable water provided must come from an approved source and be protected from contamination during handling. The Petitioner shall also ensure that all the handwash sinks are provided with hot and cold running water under pressure, soap, an approved hand drying device and a handwashing sign. The mop sink facility within Bass Pro Shops (5156 International Dr. Orlando, FL 32819) must be maintained in a clean and sanitary manner. This area must also be available to CENTRAL FLORIDA TASTY AMERICAN GRILL INC (File: 301180) during all hours of operation. If the ownership of Bass Pro Shops (5156 International Dr. Orlando, FL 32819) and CENTRAL FLORIDA TASTY AMERICAN GRILL INC (File: 301180) changes, a signed agreement between the two establishments for the use of the shared facilities must be provided to the division immediately.

The above referenced F.A.C. addresses the requirement for proper handling and dispensing of food. They are requesting to dispense bulk time/temperature control for safety foods from an open air mobile food dispensing vehicle.
The Division of Hotels and Restaurants will accept comments concerning the Petition for 14 days from the date of publication of this notice. To be considered, comments must be received before 5:00 p.m.
