About BCPH Food Protection Program

The Boulder County Public Health (BCPH) Food Protection Program aims to promote healthy people and healthy communities through education and regulation of food service establishments.

In Boulder County, there are over 1,200 "permitted" permanent food establishments, including restaurants, food and espresso carts, coffee shops, delis, and the fresh food sections of grocery stores. Each of these establishments is inspected to assess compliance with the Colorado Retail Food Code.

In addition, environmental health specialists investigate complaints and, if requested, offer an educational session for staff.
