|
Violation:
Seven disinfection procedures in August, one in September, and one in October were documented for various repairs on the potable water system. The systems were disinfected with an alternative method of 200 ppm of chlorine for 2 hours. The chlorine residual concentrations in the repaired pipe at the end of the disinfection procedures were not recorded before putting them back into service.
|
Recommendation:
Clean, disinfect, and flush potable water tanks and all affected parts of the potable water distribution system with potable water: (1) before being placed in service; (2) before returning to operation after repair, replacement; or (3) after being subjected to any contamination, including entry into a potable water tank.

Recreational Water Facilities-Aft & Main Pool Fountains
|
Violation:
Each of these two pools had a decorative fountain in the pool beach area that overflowed into the pools. The water for the fountains came from the pools. There were sprays in the fountains and a waterfall effect on each fountain that went into the pools. A facility with sprays and waterfalls meets the definition of an interactive recreational water facility (RWF). The pools comply with the turnover rates for pools but not for interactive RWFs. This RWF set-up is currently under VSP evaluation for this and other ships of the fleet.
|
Recommendation:
Design recirculation systems and equipment to maintain adequate water chemistry control while operating at the following minimum turnover rates:(1) interactive RWF or activity pool less than 610 millimeters (24 inches) deep: 1 hour; (2) interactive RWF or activity pool greater than 610 millimeters (24 inches) deep: 2 hours. Ensure an RWF slide that is combined with a pool has a turnover rate that matches the rate for the pool.

|
Recommendation:
Design recirculation systems and equipment to maintain adequate water chemistry control while operating at the following minimum turnover rates:(1) interactive RWF or activity pool less than 610 millimeters (24 inches) deep: 1 hour; (2) interactive RWF or activity pool greater than 610 millimeters (24 inches) deep: 2 hours.
