Whenever an inspection indicates that the conditions in the food establishment create an imminent hazard to the public health, the license of the food establishment shall be immediately suspended, including whenever an inspection indicates the existence of a priority item violation that cannot be corrected prior to the conclusion of the inspection. The Department may grant additional time to correct a priority violation in lieu of immediately suspending a license if the Department deems that the violation does not pose an imminent health hazard.
