Item No.: 08
Site: Galley-Coastal Kitchen
Violation: Staff were unable to clearly identify the backflow preventer for the combination ovens. Staff first identified a fitting as the backflow preventer. Staff then identified a device on the bulkhead as the backflow preventer. The line going through the backflow preventer device on the bulkhead then went into the ceiling, so the inspector was unable to trace the line.
Recommendation: Provide a comprehensive cross-connection control program. Protect connections to the potable water system against backflow with air gaps or mechanical backflow prevention devices including food service equipment.
Item No.: 08
Site: Potable Water-Tank Coating Third Party Certification
Violation: There was no written documentation of approval from the certification organization (independent of the coating manufacturer) for the tank coating. This was corrected.
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.
Item No.: 08
Site: Potable Water-Pipe Maintenance
Violation: On 23 October 2016, two pipes were replaced and disinfected with 50 ppm halogen. The records indicated that the start time of disinfection was 0900 and end time was 1200. The written methods for these two replacements indicated that the disinfection occurred for 4 hours.
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. Disinfect after potential contamination by increasing the free residual halogen to at least 50 mg/L (ppm) throughout the affected area and maintain this concentration for 4 hours or by way of another procedure submitted to and accepted by VSP.
Item No.: 08
Site: Potable Water-Cross-Connection Control Program
Violation: The log for the backflow prevention devices in the engine room indicated that the type of protection for the forward and aft technical/feed water fillings was 'n/a' instead of air gaps. In addition, the results of the inspection in October 2016 stated 'n/a' instead of an actual result.
Recommendation: Ensure the cross-connection control program includes at a minimum: a complete listing of cross-connections and the backflow prevention method or device for each, so there is a match to the plumbing system component and location. Include air gaps on the listing. Ensure a schedule for inspection frequency is set. Maintain a log documenting the inspection and maintenance in written or electronic form, and ensure it is available for review during inspections. Retain the inspection and test results for backflow prevention devices for at least 12 months and ensure they are available for review during inspections.
Item No.: 08

Violation: The potable water supply to the handwashing station was not striped blue or blue/green/blue. This was corrected.
Recommendation: Stripe or paint potable water lines either in accordance with ISO 14726 (blue/green/blue) or blue only. Ensure no other lines have the above color designations. Stripe or paint these lines at 5 meters (15 feet) intervals and on each side of partitions, decks, and bulkheads, except where decor would be marred by such markings, including potable water supply lines in technical lockers. Do not stripe or paint potable water lines after reduced pressure assemblies as potable water.
Item No.: 08
Site: Potable Water-Deck 14 Aft Far Point
Violation: The two sampling hoses did not have air gaps. This was corrected.
Recommendation: Use air gaps where feasible and where water under pressure is not required. Install backflow prevention devices when air gaps are impractical or when water under pressure is required.

Staff then identified a device on the bulkhead as the backflow preventer. The line going through the backflow preventer device on the bulkhead then went into the ceiling, so the inspector was unable to trace the line.
Recommendation: Because of the risks for foodborne illness inherent to the food operation, ensure the supervisor or person in charge of food operations on the vessel demonstrates to VSP - during inspections and on request - knowledge of foodborne disease prevention, application of the Hazard Analysis Critical Point principles, and the food-safety guidelines in this manual. Ensure that the person in charge demonstrates this knowledge by compliance with these guidelines.

Recommendation: If an animal food such as beef, eggs, fish, lamb, milk, pork, poultry, or shellfish that is raw, undercooked, or not otherwise processed to eliminate pathogens is offered in a ready-to-eat form or as a raw ingredient in another ready-to-eat food, ensure the consumer is informed by way of disclosure using menu advisories, placards, or other easily visible written means of the significantly increased risk to certain especially vulnerable consumers eating such foods in raw or undercooked form. Locate the advisory at the outlets where these types of food are served. Ensure that raw shell egg preparations are not used in uncooked products as described in section 7.3.3.2.3. Ensure that disclosure is made by one of the two following methods: (2) On a menu using an asterisk at the animal-derived foods requiring disclosure and a footnote with a statement indicating that consuming raw or undercooked meats, seafood, shellfish, eggs, milk, or poultry may increase your risk for foodborne illness, especially if you have certain medical conditions.
