PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY, VA — An elementary school in Woodbridge was cited with violations during a recent inspection by the Prince William Health District. The routine inspections are regularly conducted anywhere that serves food, including school cafeterias. Though some coronavirus restrictions continue to fluctuate around the state, health inspectors are returning to conduct many restaurant inspections in person. However, some visits, such as those for training purposes, can be conducted virtually. Violations at restaurants typically focus on factors that can contribute to food contamination. The local health department can also perform a re-inspection to ensure that possible violations have been corrected. For every observed violation, the inspector provides a specific corrective action that can be completed to rectify the violation. Sometimes these are simple, and violations can be corrected during the course of the inspection. Other violations are addressed later, and an inspector may conduct a follow-up inspection to ensure compliance. Here are the most recent inspections from the Woodbridge area, according to the Prince William Health District.
