Violation:
The free halogen residual charts dating from 14 September 2010 to 23 October 2010 had recordings of free halogen residual levels continuously changing from 0 ppm to 5 ppm during the bunkering process.

The malfunctioning device was corrected.

Recommendation:
Ensure that a halogen residual and pH test is conducted on the shore-side water supply before starting the bunkering process to establish the correct halogen dosage. Record the results of this pretest and have available for review during inspections.
