Inspector notes: The quaternary ammonium concentration in the sanitizing solution of the 3-bay warewash sink was 0 ppm, rather than 200-400 ppm as stated on the manufacturer's use directions. Corrective action; PIC replaced the sanitizer in the dispenser to derive the proper sanitizing solution concentration of 300ppm during the inspection.
