Holiday Inn Express
15700 SW Upper Boones Ferry Road
Tigard, OR 97035
Dear Mr. Frasco:
The Washington County Department of Health and Human Services Environmental Health
Program has received plans for the proposed Holiday Inn Express restaurant to be located at 15700
SW Upper Boones Ferry Road in Tigard, Oregon.
The plans you have 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
Department.
WATER AND WASTEWATER
It is our understanding that community water and community sewer are utilized at this facility.
If a grease trap or interceptor is required, it must be located and installed so that it is effective. A
maintenance schedule must be developed and followed to prevent grease from going down the
sanitary sewer.
Your plans do not show a utility mopsink or curbed floor receptacle, but you have indicated there is
one in the building. No other fixture may be used for disposal of mopwater.
Be advised 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.
REFRIGERATION
All refrigeration must be capable of holding foods at 41°F or below. Refrigerators and freezers that
do not have integral built -in thermometers must be equipped with a thermometer that is accurate to
within 2 degrees Fahrenheit. It is recommended that refrigeration temperature logs be kept.

HANDWASHING
The plans you have submitted show a handsink in the food preparation area. Handwashing
facilities as shown on the plans are approved.
All handsinks including restroom handsinks 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 handsinks must be supplied with hot and cold water or tempered water under pressure. Hot
water must reach at least 110 °F. Metered faucets must be adjusted to dispense for at least 15
seconds before shutoff.
Use of handsinks is restricted to handwashing only. Access to each sink must be kept free for its
intended use. Handwashing signage must be posted and is available from this Department upon
request. Any adjacent work surfaces or clean utensils must be protected through installation of a
splash guard. The number and placement of handsinks must be adequate to serve all foodservice
activities including preparation, cooking, dishwashing, serving, bussing, bartending, and
restrooms.
RESTROOMS
Facilities providing on- premise consumption must provide public restrooms. Seating is not shown.
Facilities that do not provide on- premise consumption must provide an employee restroom with a
toilet and a handwashing sink.
Public /employee restrooms must be available within 500 feet of the food service operation. When
public restrooms are not provided within the food facility but at a distance or elsewhere in the
building, you must provide a sign indicating the location. Restrooms must be open and available
for use during all restaurant operating hours.
Restrooms must meet all the requirements as described in the Oregon Food Sanitation Rules for
design, construction, and operation. Restroom handsinks must have hot and cold or tempered water
to at least 110 °F. If self - closing, slow - closing, or metered faucets are to be used, they must be
designed to provide a flow of water for at least 15 seconds without reactivation. 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.
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 imposed by the City of Tigard.
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.
A food preparation sink is shown. Food may not be placed into any sink that does not waste
indirectly with an approved air gap as described above. The third compaittnent of a three -
compartment sink may be utilized for food preparation only if it wastes indirectly. Food may not be
placed into sinks of incompatible use such as handsinks, mopsinks, 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
Self - service areas must have a smooth, nonabsorbent floor covering such as vinyl, tile or the
equivalent extending out 30 inches on each side to which the public has access.
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 NSF pamphlet that is enclosed 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 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 three - compartment sink for washing, rinsing and sanitizing utensils. Each
compartment of the three - compartment sink must be large enough to totally submerse your largest
multi -use utensil. Separate areas must be designated for soiled and clean utensils. You must
supply a drainboard or shelving to air dry clean utensils. Utensil washing sinks may not be used for
handwashing.
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.

GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
This facility and its operation must meet all the Oregon Food Sanitation Rules and Statutes. Please
refer to OAR 333- 150, -157, and -158 for details. A complete copy of the rules may be obtained
• from www. oregon. gov/ dhs/ ph/ foodsafety/ docs /foodsanitationrulesweb.pdf. All employees must

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 mop sink be covered with durable, washable backsplash.
Base coving is required on all wall /floor junctures that require wet mopping. 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 can not 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 4 inches high, or elevated on legs to provide at least
a 6 inch clearance between the floor and equipment.
Outside garbage storage areas or enclosures must be large enough to store the garbage and refuse
containers and must be kept clean. Garbage and refuse containers, dumpsters and compactor
systems located outside must be stored on or above a hard, nonabsorbent surface such as cement or
asphalt that is kept clean and maintained in good repair.
