Caption:

This 1975 image depicted a mop that was being rinsed in a sink under running water. The photograph was captured in order to highlight the configuration of this sink, for it was an example of improper water supply conditions, which allowed for the possible back-siphonage of dirty water into the water system. This image was used as part of a series, the purpose of which was to familiarize public health inspectors with what at the time, was proper food hygiene sanitation practices, and the myriad of food storage conditions found in migrant worker camps.
