Rules that apply across North Carolina
Job sites
North Carolina runs its own OSHA-approved state plan, so the NC Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Division enforces the construction sanitation standard, 29 CFR 1926.51. Its Table D-1 sets the legal minimum: one toilet for 20 or fewer workers; from 20, one toilet seat and one urinal per 40 workers; from 200, one of each per 50 workers.

Food at events
Food vendors at fairs, festivals and similar events need a temporary food establishment permit from the county health department, under North Carolina's food rules (15A NCAC 18A .2600). The rules ask vendors to apply at least 15 calendar days before they operate, and to have a handwashing setup for the people handling food.

Accessible units at public events
Where portable toilets are grouped together, the 2010 ADA Standards call for at least 5 percent of them, and no fewer than one, to be accessible. An event permit can ask for more.
