How Mid-Columbia eateries fared on health inspections

Health inspectors roamed far and wide for the week of March 12, calling on elementary schools from Basin City to Paterson and everything in between.

The Benton-Franklin Health District regularly inspects more than 1,000 licensed food service establishments including retailers, ranking them on a 418-point scale for cleanliness.

The Tri-City Herald publishes the results on Mondays. This week, 14 establishments — including six serving students or student groups — earned perfect scores, earning neither the more serious “red” points nor the less serious “blue” ones.

Those earning 25 or more “red” points on a routine inspection or 10 or more on a re-inspection are subject to further review.

Past restaurant inspections may be viewed at bfhd.wa.gov/food/index.php
