- On February 20, 2012, the Division of Hotels and Restaurants received a Petition for an Emergency Variance for paragraph 61C-1.004(1)(a), Florida Administrative Code and Paragraph 5-202.11(A), 2001 FDA Food Code from Dunedin Bagels & Deli located in Dunedin. The above referenced F.A.C. addresses the requirement that each establishment have an approved plumbing system installed to transport potable water and collect wastewater. They are requesting to utilize holding tanks to provide potable water and to collect wastewater at the handwash sink in the dry storage area.
The Petition for this variance was published in Vol. 38, No. 9, March 2, 2012. The Order for this Petition was signed on March 15, 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 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 the handwash sink is provided with hot and cold running water under pressure, soap, approved hand drying device and a handwashing sign.
