Correspondence , P1A 9,c W- ( 1 )\ } WASHINGTON COUNTY OREGON March 24, 2008 Jason Tucker do Tigard Lane, LLC 14411 SW Pacific Highway Tigard, OR 97224 RE: PLAN REVIEW FACILITY NUMBER: 34007167 The Rialto 14411 SW Pacific Highway Tigard, OR 97224 Dear Mr. Tucker: The Washington County Department of Health and Human Services Environmental Health Program has received revised remodel plans for The Rialto restaurant located at 14411 SW Pacific Highway in Tigard, Oregon. This restaurant has been previously licensed, but is being substantially remodeled. The restaurant must be updated so it meets all aspects of the current rules. During remodel construction, operation of the facility is not allowed if there is an interruption in power, gas, or water supply.. All construction activities that create dust or other possible contamination must be done during closed hours or under approved methods of contamination containment. The plans you submitted have been approved subject to the following conditions. If any future changes are necessary during construction, the changes must be first approved by this office. WATER AND WASTEWATER Your plans show a utility mopwashing sink or curbed floor receptacle in the existing kitchen. It is understood that wastewater generated from this remodeled area will be disposed of into this mopwashing sink. No other fixture may be used for disposal of mopwater. If you plan to install an automatic chemical dispensing system at your mopwashing station, please contact the local Plumbing Authority for information on the proper backflow device needed to protect your fresh water. Please supply a mop- hanging device so mops and similar floor cleaning equipment can be cleaned and hung between uses. Be advised that your hot water heater must be of sufficient capacity to meet the peak hot water demands of your facility. If hot water availability is found to be problematic, additional hot water generating equipment will be required. Preliminary calculations show that your facility has a peak demand of approximately 195 GPH. To meet this demand, the recommended minimum capacity of the water heater would be 110,000 BTU. Your plans do not indicate it there will be an additional water heater installed to accommodate the addition of equipment for the remodeled area. Please submit additional information indicating if there is one or two water heaters.

Refrigerators and freezers that do not have integral built -in thermometers must be equipped with a thermometer that is accurate to within 2 °F. It is recommended that refrigeration temperature logs be kept. Refrigeration units that have condensation drain lines must waste indirectly to the sewer through a floor drain, hub drain, or other approved waste water receptacle. HANDWASHING The plans you have submitted show one handwashing sink in the remodeled food service bar area. Handwashing facilities as shown on the plans are approved. All handwashing sinks, including restroom handwashing sinks, must be equipped with dispensed soap and towels. Common (cloth) towels cannot be used to dry hands. If disposable towels are used, waste receptacles must be conveniently located near the handwashing facilities. All handwashing sinks must be supplied with hot and cold water or tempered water under pressure. Hot water must reach at least 110 °F within a reasonable time. Metered faucets must be adjusted to dispense for at least 15 seconds before shutoff. The number and placement of handwashing sinks must be adequate to serve all food service activities including preparation, cooking, dishwashing, serving, bussing, bartending, and restrooms. Use of handwashing sinks is restricted to handwashing only. Access to each sink must be kept free for its intended use. Any adjacent work surfaces or clean utensils must be protected through installation of a splash guard. Handwashing signage must be posted. Handwashing signage is available from this office upon request. RESTROOMS It is understood that there will be no changes to seating or restrooms. Restrooms must meet all the requirements as described in the Oregon Food Sanitation Rules for design, construction, and operation. Restroom doors must self -close if they open onto a food or dining area. There must be at least one covered waste receptacle in the women's restroom. Two restrooms are shown on the plans. Please consult the local Building Depai tment for information on the ratio of toilets, urinals, and handwashing sinks required for your planned occupancy. FOOD EQUIPMENT, PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS All plumbing fixtures and installations must meet the requirements of the Oregon Uniform Plumbing Code, including the installation of backflow devices to protect the potable water supply. The facility must also meet any additional requirements by the City of Tigard. i. Drain lines from any fixture or piece of equipment used to hold food or ice must waste indirectly to a floor sink or floor drain. This typically includes refrigerator condensation lines, ice machines, sinks used for food preparation, soda fountains, dishwashing machines, steam tables, dipper wells, and espresso machines. • Restaurant Plan Review Letter -- Washington County HHS Environmental Health Program Page 3 Where an air gap is required to prevent contamination from sewage backflow, the distance between the bottom of the drain pipe and the rim of the floor sink or floor drain must be at least one inch or two pipe diameters, whichever is greater. Floor drains and floor sinks must remain accessible for cleaning and maintenance. Your plans indicate an indirect waste connection, as required, for the following equipment: ice bin and glass washer. A food preparation sink is not shown in the remodeled area, however it is understood that the third compartment of the three- compai intent sink in the existing kitchen will be utilized for food preparation since it wastes indirectly. Food may not be placed into sinks of incompatible use such as handwashing • sinks, mopwashing sinks, mop basins, or utility sinks. Wall - mounted spray guns must terminate above the rim of the sink or basin they serve. Any hose bib to which hoses will be attached must be equipped with an approved backflow protection device. Chemical dispensing systems connected to water supply lines must have approved backflow protection. FOOD STORAGE, DISPLAY, AND SERVING Customer self - service is not indicated. If there will be self - service, please contact this office for additional information and requirements. All food or food items in the facility which are within customer reach and are not prepackaged must be protected from customer contamination by a sneeze shield or other approved means. Please see the enclosed NSF pamphlet for information on sneeze shield requirements. Lights over food storage, food preparation, utensil washing, and food display areas must be shielded, coated, or otherwise shatter resistant. Food may not be stored under exposed or unprotected sewer lines or water lines, except where automatic fire protection sprinkler heads may be required by law. All equipment and storage of food, food containers, and single service utensils must be on shelves at least six inches above the floor except where storage is on wheeled platforms or four inch high sealed bases. Metal pressurized containers or cased canned goods may be stored on the floor. Storage shelves must be smooth, impervious, and easily cleanable. DISHWASHING AND SANITIZING The plans show a glasswasher. The glasswasher is assumed to be a commercial model. Home style dishwashers do not meet code requirements. Machine or water line mounted thermometers must be provided to indicate water temperatures of the wash and rinse cycles. These thermometers must be accurate to +2 °F or +1°C. The dishwasher must be capable of reaching proper wash and rinse temperatures and must waste indirectly to a floor sink. If the dishwasher sanitizes with a boosted high temperature rinse, the final rinse temperature must reach 160 °F or higher at the dish surface. If a chemical sanitizer is used, it must meet the requirements of 21 CFR and be dispensed in proper concentration. An accurate test kit is required to test the sanitizer concentration of the final rinse. Restaurant Plan Review Letter -- Washington County HHS Environmental Health Program Page 4 You must also have a method in place to clean and sanitize fixed food contact surfaces and equipment. If wet wiping cloths are to be used, they must be kept in a clean rinse solution with an approved sanitizer to prevent bacterial growth. SPECIAL MENU REQUIREMENTS Your menu indicates foods that have a cooling step. A method to rapidly cool these foods must be provided. Commercial air cooled refrigerators, ice baths, or cooling wands are recommended for cooling foods. When foods are cooled in a refrigerator, they must be left uncovered until cool, and kept well - separated to encourage air flow. Liquid foods may not be cooled at a depth of greater than four inches and soft, thick foods may not be cooled at a depth greater than two inches in air- cooled refrigerators. Large portions of meat should be portioned so that each portion weighs no more than four pounds. Potentially hazardous foods must be cooled from 140 °F to 70 °F within two hours and from 70 °F to 41 °F within an additional four hours. The total cooling time may not exceed six hours. If you plan to cater foods, please submit your catering plans to this office. If food delivery is planned, deliveries must be made with approved equipment that will keep products at correct temperatures. It is recommended that a temperature log be kept of foods being transported. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS This facility and its operation must meet all the Oregon Food Sanitation Rules and Statutes.

All floor, wall, and ceiling surfaces must be smooth, durable, sealed, and easily cleanable. Any areas that are worn or damaged must be repaired. Where walls and ceilings are painted, high gloss paint is recommended. It is also highly recommended that walls behind cooking equipment, dishwashing equipment, and the mopwashing sink be covered with a durable, washable backsplash. If floor cleaning will take place using a wet mopping method, base coving is required on all wall/floor junctures and no gaps shall exist larger than 1 /32nd of an inch. If water flush cleaning methods are used, the floors must be provided with drains and be graded to drain, and the wall/floor junctures must be coved and sealed with no gaps. Gaps in floors, doors, walls, or ceilings around plumbing or electrical work must be filled in to prevent rodent and insect access and entrance. Exposed utility lines and pipes cannot be installed horizontally on the floor. All equipment must be installed so as to be moveable or properly sealed to facilitate proper cleaning. Floor- mounted equipment, unless readily moveable, must be sealed to the floor, installed on a concrete or otherwise smooth base at least four inches high, or elevated on legs to provide at least a six inch clearance between the floor and equipment.
