Food may be examined or sampled by the Director of Health or
his authorized agent as often as necessary for enforcement of this
chapter or the Public Health Code of the State of Connecticut. The
Director of Health may, upon written notice to the owner or person
in charge specifying with particularity the reasons therefor, place
a hold order on any food or beverage which he believes is unfit for
human consumption. The Director of Health or his authorized agent
shall tag, label or otherwise identify any food subject to the hold
order. No food subject to a hold order shall be used, served or moved
from the establishment. The Director of Health shall permit storage
of the food under conditions specified in the hold order, unless storage
is not possible without risk to the public health, in which case immediate
destruction shall be ordered and accomplished. The hold order shall
state that an appeal may be filed with the Commissioner of Health
of the State of Connecticut within 48 hours after the order is served
and that if no appeal is so filed, the food shall be destroyed. The
Commissioner of Health of the State of Connecticut shall hear such
appeal, if so requested, and, on the basis of evidence produced at
the hearing, the hold order may be vacated or modified, or the owner
or person in charge of the food may be directed, by written order,
to denature or destroy such food or to bring it into compliance with
the provisions of this chapter or the Public Health Code of the State
of Connecticut.
