Item No.: 10
Site: Recreational Water Facilities-Nautapool
Violation: There were numerous readings from the electronic record keeping system that showed either low or high free chlorine residuals which were out of the set point range of 3-6 ppm. It was not clear from the pool operator's notes whether the calibration check verified these readings or if the analyzer was out of calibration. The facility was kept in operation during these times. Per the pool operator, there were days when he would stay in the pump room to perform numerous calibration adjustments so that the water flow would continue. Per the Staff Captain, part of the problem resulted from water not flowing through the system from the facility drains when the vessel was listing away from the drains.
Recommendation: Provide adequate maintenance/repair of the electronic recording system such that frequent daily calibrations are not necessary. Replace defective equipment as necessary.
