Category I:  Violations deemed to create imminent threat to the public health and an imminent health hazard to the consumer.  Violations of Category I must be corrected immediately upon the food service establishments’ receipt of the Inspection Report citing Category I.  Failure to correct these violations to the satisfaction of the health authority may result in such emergency action as deemed necessary by the health authority including actions pursuant to O.C.G.A.
