The bunkered water was not continuously halogenated above 2 ppm free residual halogen. The ship's chlorine pump was damaged and a new one was ordered. Per staff, the shore water tests were around 2 ppm free residual halogen at the start of bunkering, but there was no way to verify the residual after bunkering started.
