Observed orange garden hose that leads to a pipe behind the back side of the shell gas station.

Black box and PVC pipes are not a quick disconnect and operator must maintain his gray water within the tank of his truck. Per 61C-4.0161, MFDVs may temporarily connect to an approved utility system for no more than one day's operation. Therefore, the mobile food unit must have a quick disconnect system in place and be able to demonstrate it upon request. The quick disconnect can be as simple as a plug-in for electricity or a traditional hose connection that unscrews. It should be quick and easy to use and not require special tools to accomplish. The mobile food unit must be street worthy at all times. **Admin Complaint**
