California RulesQuestion 109 of 319

In Los Angeles County and several other California counties, a 'green A' placard posted at a restaurant indicates:

a.A passing inspection score (typically 90-100)
b.A failing inspection score requiring closure
c.That the facility has never been inspected
d.Only that an alcohol permit is held

Explanation

Many California counties (notably LA County) use a color-coded placard system: green 'A' for passing scores (typically 90-100), yellow 'B' for moderate (80-89), and red 'C' for poor (below 70). The placard must be posted visibly at the entrance.
