Inspector Comments:
Note: According to the manager, rain water had leaked through the roof and ceiling, and been dripping onto the floor; the roof had later been maintained. I observed wet & saggy and dry cardboard lined on floor at selling aisles. I also observed two rainwater-damaged ceiling tiles above reach-in freezers. No active water leakage from roof/ceiling has been observed during this inspection.

Corrected cited violations within 5 and 14 calendar days.
