Inspection Reports for Restaurants in Wayne County

To keep Wayne County citizens safe, the Environmental Health Section maintains a comprehensive list of inspection reports for restaurants in Wayne County. Inspection Reports for restaurants can be seen at http://swordsolutions.com. Once on the Sword Solutions website, please click on inspections and follow the instructions that are provided.

Michigan Food Law 2000 changed and the terms 'critical violation' and 'noncritical violation' are no longer used by a regulatory authority to classify violations of the Food Code as of October 1, 2012. The new violation citation terminology established in the FDA 2009 Food Code is Priority, Priority Foundation, and Core.

  • "Priority item" means a provision in the Food Code whose application contributes directly to the elimination, prevention, or reduction to an acceptable level of hazards associated with foodborne illness or injury. Priority item includes an item with a quantifiable measure to show control of hazards such as cooking, reheating, cooling, or hand washing.

  • "Priority Foundation item" means a provision in the Food Code whose application supports, facilitates, or enables one or more priority items. Priority Foundation item includes an item that requires the purposeful incorporation of specific actions, equipment, or procedures by industry management to attain control of risk factors that contribute to foodborne illness or injury such as personnel training, infrastructure, or necessary equipment, HACCP plans, documentation or record-keeping, and labeling.

  • "Core item" means a provision in the Food Code that is not designated as a Priority item or a Priority Foundation item. Core item includes an item that usually relates to general sanitation, operational controls, sanitation standard operating procedures (SSOPs), facilities or structures, equipment design, or general maintenance.
