Sec. 1250.84  Water in galleys and medical care spaces.

    (a) Potable water, hot and cold, shall be available in the galley

has been used for the washing of utensils prior to the effective date of 
the regulations in this part, such water may continue to be so used 
provided controls are employed to insure the heating of all water to at 
least 170  deg.F before discharge from the heater.
    (c) Potable water, hot and cold, shall be available in medical care 
spaces for hand-washing and for medical care purposes excluding
