What's New
Process
Approach to HACCP
FDA and USDA has just approved using the
“Process Approach to HACCP” as an alternative to the traditional HACCP.
Process Approach HACCP divides each all the recipes of the kitchen into 3
categories based on complexity. Then each category has a HACCP plan instead
of each recipe which traditional HACCP would require.

St Croix
County's Smoke Free Dining Guide
Unless there is a stricter local ordinance,
current state law requires restaurants to be smoke free if they have a
seating capacity of more than 50. BUT this state law does allow such
restaurants to designate a smoking section as long as it accommodates the
non-smokers.
Public Health would like to applaud the restaurants of
Saint Croix County that go above and beyond the current smoking requirements
and recognize them in this guide.
