EHS - Temporary Food Permits

Environmental, Health and Safety - TFP Requests

Organizations and Departments hosting events with food will need to submit a Temporary Food Permit (TFP) Request at least 10 calendar days prior to the proposed event. The TFP is valid for up to four hours.

  1. Read the TFP Guidelines
  2. Sign the Declaration of Acknowledgement (DOA) after reading the guidelines, and upload into the permit application system along with Training Certificate(s)
  3. After the DOA and Training Certificates are uploaded, the TFP application can be opened and submitted

Use of any open flame including: barbecue pits, reheating, hot holding devices such as sterno fuels, or candles will need to request an Open Flame Permit (OFP). Select OFP on the application, and upload the fire training certificate. The OFP is generated and emailed (along with the food permit) when approved by EHS.

If applicable, print the TFP, DOA, FHC, OFP, FMC, and Allergens Statement and post visibly at your event.

Refer to the TFP Guidelines and applicable section of the EHS website Forms page for more information.
