Potable Water-Legionella Sampling
|
|
Violation:
Potable water storage tanks had not been sampled for Legionella. The most recent sampling occurred in July 2025. Staff explained tanks will be sampled in October 2025. (VSP 2025 Environmental Public Health Standards)
|
|
Recommendation:
Sample the potable water system for Legionella at least every 6 months. Ensure sample sites are representative of the potable water and RWF systems and number of samples depends on the size and complexity of the vessel.
Take follow-up actions when Legionella is detected based on the type of Legionella found, the concentration (for example in CFU/ml), and the extent of colonization. Actions can include (1) Review of the water management program; (2) Root cause analysis to understand possible reasons for Legionella growth; (3) Updates to the water management program if needed. Consider retesting fixtures or devices where Legionella was detected to confirm the effectiveness of the response and to determine if remediation is needed. For additional guidance, see ASHRAE Guideline 12, Appendix C5.
The Legionella sampling plan must include a selection of the following locations: (1) Potable water storage tanks; (2) Water heaters and hot water storage; (3) Hot water return lines; (4) Representative points of use in cabins, galleys, and recreational areas. Include a mix of fixture types (showers, sink faucets, tubs). Include potable water samples when temperatures are in the range favorable for Legionella growth (77?113F, 25?45C); (5) Decorative water features; (6) Misting systems; (7) Salon and pedicure devices; (8) Technical water sources with a risk of exposure via aerosolization to crew or passengers, such as deck washing.
