Return to the Volume 2, Issue 5, Index. They have related incidents about unprepared food, insects in meals, and unsanitary conditions. However, upon inspection by the Virgin Islands Department of Environmental Health, UVI's cafeteria has surpassed the minimum requirements over the last two years. An establishment must score above a 75 in order to pass inspection.
All inspections are surprise inspections, and establishments are never told in advance.
The cafeteria was inspected on April 19, 1996. It received a score of 83 out of 100. The inspection was conducted by Dwayne Maduro and John Aubain. Points were taken of for lack of screens in certain open areas, florescent light fixtures were not covered in order to prevent them from breaking on impact, garbage recepticals were not covered. Certain food containers were not labeled properly, and some of the boxes which contained certain foods such as meat or vegetables were not stored on shelves.
