These Monroe County facilities were inspected between Dec. 30 and Jan. 5, according to data from the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture.
The Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture provides this disclosure: “Please note that each inspection is a ‘snapshot’ of the day and time of the inspection. An inspection conducted on any given day may not be representative of the overall cleanliness of a building over the long term. Violations are also recorded during the inspection, but these are often corrected on site before the inspector leaves the site.”
