Item No.: 06
Site: Potable Water-
Violation: During the inspection, the records for microbiological testing of the port water could not be located. A page from the most recent log of testing of port water by the Carnival Sensation was provided during the outbrief. Using the port water sample results from another ship in the port is acceptable, however, these records should be readily available for review during an inspection.
Recommendation: Where available, ensure that the vessel has a copy of the most recent microbiologic report from each port before bunkering potable water to verify that the water meets potable standards. Water samples collected and analyzed by the vessel for the presence of Escherichia coli may be substituted for port water system supplied reports. These samples shall be analyzed utilizing a method accepted in Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater. If a vessel bunkers potable water from the same port more than once per month only one test per month is required. Ensure that these records are maintained on the vessel for 12 months and available to the VSP for review during inspections.
