Instructions for Table A-1
Evaluate your jurisdiction's code, regulation or ordinance against each Food Code section grouped by interventions and risk factors listed in Table A-1 above. To obtain credit for the intervention/risk factor, each of the code sections must be checked in the block of the right hand column. A check mark indicates that your code/regulation contains language at least as stringent as the main requirements in the corresponding FDA Food Code section. For example, under the section "Good Hygienic Practices," each of the 3 items must have a check in the right-hand column indicating that your code/regulation meets the intent of all three Food Code sections.
Note: If your code requirement is as stringent or more stringent than the Food Code requirement, you receive credit for that section. For example, if your code/regulation requires the PERSON IN CHARGE to demonstrate knowledge of the Code by being a certified FOOD protection manager who has shown proficiency through passing a test that is part of an ACCREDITED PROGRAM but does not provide other options for demonstration of knowledge, consider this as meeting 2-102.11. You would then place a check mark in the right-hand column adjacent to 2-102.11

Instructions for Table A-2
-
Use the information from Table A-1 to complete this table. Determine a PASS or FAIL rating for each of the eleven (11) Interventions/Risk Factors by reviewing the check marks on Table A-1. If all of the Code sections listed under an Intervention/Risk Factor have a check mark in the right-hand column on Table A-1, give yourself a PASS rating for that item on Table A-2.
If any of the Code section provisions are missing, as indicated by a blank in the right-hand column of Table A-1, indicate FAIL for that Intervention/Risk Factor. For example: Under "Approved Source," if your code/regulation does not address mushroom species picked in the wild, the right-hand column adjacent to 3-201.16 on Table A-1 would be blank. Therefore, the "Approved Source" Intervention/Risk Factor on Table A-2 would be marked as FAIL.
- For initial participation and listing purposes, if you have achieved a PASS rating on at least 9 of the 11 items on Table A-2, you receive an overall PASS rating for the Interventions/Risk Factors. By the second scheduled audit, you must achieve a PASS rating on 11 of the 11 items in order to receive an overall PASS rating for the Interventions/Risk Factors portion of Standard 1.

Instructions for Table A-3
To complete Table A-3, do the following: Evaluate your jurisdiction's code or ordinance against each Food Code section grouped by topics under the major section headings numbered 12 through 37 above. If your code/regulation has language meeting the full intent of the corresponding model Food Code section, place a check mark in column 3. Columns 4 and 5 are intended to serve as an analytical tool to help you identify gaps in your current code/regulation and to plan for future revisions.
Starting with Section Heading 12 entitled Personnel, count the total number of check marks in column 3 under this heading and transfer this number to column 2 of Table A-4. Do this for each of the numbered section headings until all the information is transferred to Table A-4.
