Item No.: 08
Site: Potable Water-Annual Testing
Violation: The backflow prevention devices requiring annual testing were tested according to a company procedure that was incomplete when compared to the procedure required by the devices test kit. Specifically, the company procedure required checking valves 1 and 2 for tightness only while the test kit procedure also required checking for the pressure differential at which the relieve vent started to leak. All testable backflow prevention devices were tested in September 2015.
Recommendation: Inspect and test backflow prevention devices requiring testing with a test kit after installation and at least annually. Maintain the test results showing the pressure differences on both sides of the valves for each device. Review the procedure to test backflow prevention devices requiring testing. Ensure that the procedure includes tests for the relief vent as instructed in the test kit manual.
Item No.: 10
Site: Recreational Water Facilities-Pool
Violation: The sample line for the pool analyzer was located after the compensation tank.

Item No.: 10
Site: Recreational Water Facilities-Whirlpools Bather Loads
Violation: The calculated bather load was 5 persons but the safety signs stated that the bather load was 6 persons.

Item No.: 16
Site: Buffet-Deck 7 - La Tarrazza
Violation: Consumer advisory was not provided for under cooked roast beef. The general advisory was posted at the buffet entrance. A good specific advisory was provided on the sushi service,

Item No.: 24
Site: Galley-Deck 4 - Warewashing
Violation: The glass washer, that was on, but not in active use when the inspection team entered the area, had a final rinse temperature of 155°-157°F at glass surface on the inspector's thermocouple. The final rinse gauge showed 164°F in the final rinse manifold during the rinse cycle. Repairs on the final rinse thermostat were made and the final rinse temperature at glass surface was verified at 175°F and 184°F on the final rinse gauge.
Recommendation: Ensure the temperature of the fresh hot water sanitizing rinse is less than: (2) 82°C (180°F) for all other machines. Ensure the utensil surface temperature is not less than 71°C (160°F) as measured by an irreversible registering temperature indicator.
