Upon viewing daily temperature log of walk in cooler it was registering at 42 F earlier and 46 F was noted for 10/1/24.

PIC called maintenance during inspection and requested emergency service who will arrive soon. Requested that all TCS foods be moved into walk in freezer or stored at middle school next door as they have had to do in the past. Inspector will perform verification follow up tomorrow morning.
