Abstract: Information is collected on the DD Form 2970 as a one-time submission by a food vendor requesting to operate a food establishment on a military installation. Approval to operate the food establishment is determined by the installation's medical authority; preventive medicine (public health) uses the information as part of a pre-operational assessment to determine if the vendor meets prescribed DoD food safety requirements. Food vendors who are deemed inadequately prepared or equipped to provide safe food service are disapproved for operating on the installation.
