Disposal of Refuse.
Section 22
SEC. 22. Disposal of Refuse.— Refuse cans may be used in food-preparation areas for immediate use only. Storage refuse cans, filled and empty; shall be in a designated space separate from food-handling operations. These cans shall be so constructed and maintained as to be vermin-proof and easily cleaned. Cans containing refuse be tightly covered at all times, except during actual use in food handling areas. Holding bins may likewise be used, provided they are constructed of impervious, readily-cleaned materials, and fitted with tight-fitting covers. Where refuse cans are used, a space separate from the food-handling spaces and adjacent to the refuse-can storage space shall be provided for cleaning them. This space shall be equipped with scrubbing brushes, cleansing agents, steam or hot water under pressure, and a hose fitted with adjustable nozzle.
