Selected Item Details
Item No.: 08
Site: Potable Water-Cross-Connection Control Program
Violation: The cross-connection control program listed the showers in the spa as having N9C backflow prevention devices, but vacuum breakers were installed. The program listed only one steam generator in the spa, but there were at least 3 in that area and staff stated that there were 5 steam generators. For both the showers and the steam generators, the appropriate backflow prevention was installed, but the program did not reflect the actual device or number of devices.
Recommendation:Ensure that the cross-connection control program listing of devices reflects what is installed in each location.
Site: Galley-Deck 14 Gazebo
Violation: There was no air gap at the end of the drain pipe connected to the intermediate atmospheric vent on the backflow prevention device for the combination oven.
Recommendation:Ensure that air gaps are at least twice the diameter of the delivery fixture opening and a minimum of 3 cm (1 inch).
