WAC 16-165-150
Food establishment inspection rating
system -- Inspection score. (1) A food establishment is rated as
follows at the completion of an inspection conducted by the
department:
(a) A food establishment will be debited the point value
assigned to the inspection item listed in WAC 16-165-140 for each
violation found during an inspection.
(b) The sum of the points debited for an inspection are
subtracted from the maximum point value of one hundred. The
remaining sum is the establishment's score for that inspection.
(c) When the department on a food establishment inspection
identifies a critical violation, no score will be listed unless
the critical violation is satisfactorily corrected during the
inspection.
(2) An establishment is considered in substantial compliance
with the inspection criteria if:
•
No critical violations are found, or if critical
violations are found and corrected prior to completion
of the inspection; and
•
The establishment's inspection score is ninety points
or above.
