APPRAISAL

This record can be used to take enforcement action against station owners who violate inspection regulations. Each audit report sets a limit for making corrective actions, usually the next inspection. Only after the subsequent inspection is enforcement action taken. This record, therefore, can be of use to the department to show a pattern of noncompliance. A four year retention is consistent with other local health department inspection reports.
