Text

(a) A regulatory authority may summarily suspend a license
to operate a food establishment if it determines through
consultation with a health officer, inspection, examination of
food, employees, records or other authorized means that an
imminent health hazard exists including, but not limited to,
fire, flood, extended interruption of electrical or water
service, or sewage backup.
(b) The regulatory authority may summarily suspend a
person's license by providing written notice of the summary
suspension to the license holder or person in charge, without
prior warning, notice of a hearing or a hearing.
(c) The regulatory authority shall conduct an inspection
of the establishment or food processing plant for which the
license was summarily suspended within forty-eight (48) hours
after receiving notice from the license holder stating that the
conditions cited in the summary suspension order no longer
exist.
(d) A summary suspension shall remain in effect until the
conditions cited in the notice of suspension no longer exist and
the elimination of the conditions has been confirmed by the
regulatory authority through inspection or other means as
appropriate. A suspended license shall be reinstated immediately
if the regulatory authority determines that the imminent health
hazard no longer exists. A notice of reinstatement shall be
provided to the license holder or person in charge of the
establishment.
(e) Temporary food events where no admission fee is
charged and where no fee is charged for food shall not be
subject to the license suspension provisions of this section.
