Nevada Revised Statute 446.930 and
Nevada Administrative Code 446.955 requires that properly
prepared plans and specifications be submitted to the Health
Authority for review and approval when a food establishment
is newly constructed, extensively remodeled, or if an
existing structure is converted into a food establishment
before any work has begun.
The attached plan review application is provided for your
use in meeting the statutory requirements. It is the Public
Health and Clinical Services EHS’s (PHCS-EHS) goal to facilitate the
plan review process in the most timely and efficient manner.
Some of the items on the list may not apply to your specific
operation. If they are not relevant, please do not leave
them blank. If you do so, it will be assumed that there is
information that you have failed to provide. Rather, mark
N/A or not applicable to those items that do not apply to
your planned business operation.
When submitting plans to PHCS-EHS, only
one set is required. It is suggested that you make a copy of
your application for yourself. Submit the application and
plans to the office that is checked on the left side of this
page. If you are in doubt, please call the Carson City
office and you will be directed to the office in which your
plan review will take place. Plan review fees are due and
payable at the time you submit your plans. They are
calculated based on your annual permit fee, plus an
additional $498.00. Plans are reviewed on a first come,
first served basis. If your plans are not approved, a reason
will be given in writing. Revisions will be needed either in
the form of a new set of plans or revised individual sheets.
Respond to all plan review questions from PHCS-EHS in writing.
Plan approval will also be issued in writing.
No changes or revisions in your
plans may be made after approval is given without notifying
PHCS-EHS. It is the permit holder’s responsibility to inform
contractors and sub-contractors about plan changes that may
affect construction.
You will need to notify the
appropriate PHCS-EHS office at least one week in advance of the
day you wish to open. A final construction inspection must
be conducted by PHCS-EHS staff to verify construction according
to approved plans. You may not open until you have completed
an application for your health permit, all fees have been
paid in full, and the final construction inspection is
completed.
Thank you and good luck with your
future business endeavor! PHCS-EHS looks forward to working with
you. |
