Potable Water-Potable Water - Microbiological Analysis
|
|
Violation:
In the microbiological monitoring log, the directions for the analysis included under #3 a statement that the analysis was for the presence of coliforms. Re-test if positive. There was no mention of the use of a ultraviolet light following an initial positive test to check for fluourescent activity and the presence of Eschirichia coli bacteria.
|
|
Recommendation:
Ensure that the log form instructions are changed to include the test required for E. coli bacteria using the ultraviolet light when a positive coliform bacteria test is confirmed.

Potable Water-Potable Water - Cross-Connection Control Plan
|
|
Violation:
The air-gaps for the 2 mineralizer drains (to bilge) and the 2 water softener drains (to bilge) were not listed for inspection in the cross-connection combined list of backflow preventers. The list includes potable water connections to chemical lockers on decks 4,6, and 8 with a NLFS9 Watts backflow preventer. There is only one chemical locker now, on deck 8, and the preventer installed on the potable water line is a Watts N9. Additional to that are individual preventers installed on the Eco-Lab chemical dispensers, which are not listed.
|
|
Recommendation:
Ensure that the cross-connection control program includes at minimum: a complete listing of cross-connections and the backflow prevention method/device for each, so that there is a match to the plumbing system component and location, and an inspection frequency. Ensure that air-gaps are included in the listing. Ensure that a log documenting inspection and maintenance, in written or electronic form, is maintained and available for review during inspections.

Integrated Pest Management-Integrated Pest Management - Active Monitoring

|
|
Recommendation:
Ensure all onboard staff who conduct the night inspections clearly understand that part of those inspections must include an inspection of the entire space for live pests, and not simply a review of only the trap placed in a location.
