body
Background and Purpose of Request:
Per the Food Service Manager at the Cumberland County Jail, Tom Leahy, It has become apparent that major equipment in the kitchen requires immediate replacement in order for the kitchen to properly function and continue to provide this facility meals on a daily basis. The jail currently has a total of six Vulcan baking ovens in the kitchen. These ovens are stacked three high on each other and set up as two stacks of three. All six of the ovens require a “Mercury switch” to engage. Mercury switches have been banned thus preventing any future repairs. All six ovens are inoperable and have been removed, by maintenance, from the kitchen to be scrapped.
