Potable Water-Tank Maintenance

Violation:
In February 2016, potable water tank 5 port was painted and sanitized. Records indicated the paint was 'applied per the manufacturer.' The tank was spot painted on 28 February, but the time was not recorded. On 29 February at 06:30, sanitizing of the tank began. The ship was following the manufacturer specifications of 12 hours required for hard dry, but it could not be determined if 12 hours had passed before sanitizing began. VSP requires the paint be cured before sanitizing begins. Manufacturer specifications required about 6 days curing time when the entire tank was painted. The ship recently received instruction from the manufacturer regarding curing time when spot painting occurs.

Recommendation:
Ensure the interior coatings on potable water tanks are approved for potable water contact by a certification organization. Follow all manufacturers? recommendations for application, drying, and curing. For the tank coatings used, maintain the following onboard: (1) written documentation of approval from the certification organization (independent of the coating manufacturer); (2) manufacturers? recommendations for application, drying, and curing; and (3) written documentation that the manufacturers? recommendations have been followed for application, drying, and curing.
