Tillamook County Environmental Health (EH) department licenses and inspects approximately 300 facilities in the county. These include restaurants, mobile units, pools & spas, schools, RV parks, and motels. These facilities (except motels) receive at least two unannounced inspections annually. Motels are typically inspected once a year.
Restaurant scores are based on a maximum of 100 points, with deductions for various types of violations. A restaurant must receive a score of 70 to pass the inspection.
Critical violations are worth either 4 or 5 points, but points are deducted only once even if more than one violation is found in a certain category. For instance, a restaurant could have violations for both improper cooking temperatures and improper cooling, but since both are in the temperature category, only 5 points would be deducted.
Critical violations that present an immediate health hazard must be corrected at the time of the inspection. Other critical violations may have a temporary correction put in place, with a permanent correction required within two weeks. Re-inspections are required on repeat critical violations and any temporary corrections; however, they are not scored.
Critical Violation Categories are:
00 - Demonstration of Knowledge (no point value)
01 - Approved Sources (5 points)
03 - Food Temperatures (5 points)
04 - Temperature Control Capacity (4 points)
07 - Cross Contamination (4 points)
11 - Employee Health (5 points)
12 - Personal Hygiene (5 points)
20 - Sanitizing Food Contact Surfaces (4 points)
27 - Approved Water Supply (5 points)
28 - Approved Sewage Disposal (4 points)
30 - Backflow Prevention (5 points)
31 - Handwashing Facilities (4 points)
35 - Pest Control (4 points)
41 - Chemical Use and Storage (5 points)
Non-critical violations are worth either 1 or 2 points. These violations include items like no thermometers or test strips, cleanable surfaces, utensil storage, food protection, construction, and others.
