Site: Other-POTABLE WATER - BUNKERING
Violation: DURING ACTIVE BUNKERING OF POTABLE WATER THREE MANUAL MEASURES TAKEN BETWEEN 1300-1315 REGISTERED FREE CHLORINE RESIDUALS BETWEEN 1.21 AND 1.88. THE SHIP'S CHLORINE ANALYZER CONTROLLER REGISTERED 3-7 PPM IN COMPARISON. THE ONBOARD MANUAL CHLORINE TEST KIT WAS OPERATED UNDER A PROGRAM #8, BUT USING THE TEST METHOD FOR PROGRAM #9 (8021). THE PROGRAM #8 REQUIRED DIFFERENT SAMPLE SIZES AND BOTTLES, DILUTION WITH DEIONIZED WATER, AND 25 ML REAGENT PILLOWS (METHOD 10069).
Recommendation: 5.2.1.1.1 Potable water shall be continuously halogenated to at least 2.0 mg/L (ppm) free residual halogen at the time of bunkering or production with an automatic halogenation device.
Item No.: 08
Site: Other-POTABLE WATER - BACKFLOW
Violation: ALTHOUGH THERE WAS AN ELECTRONIC RECORD OF THE VARIOUS BACKFLOW PREVENTERS REQUIRING TESTING AND A TEST FREQUENCY, NO RECORD OF ANY ANNUAL TESTS FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS COULD BE FOUND.
Recommendation: 5.7.2.2.2 Backflow prevention devices requiring testing, for example reduced pressure backflow preventer and double check valves with test cocks, shall be inspected and tested with a test kit at least annually. Test results showing the pressure differences on both sides of the valves shall be maintained for each device. 5.7.2.2.3 The inspection and test results for backflow preventers shall be retained for at least 12 months and shall be available to the VSP for review during inspections.
Item No.: 16
Site: Other-LIDO - BEVERAGE STATIONS

THE CREAMER PITCHERS ARE SET OUT FROM EARLY MORNING THROUGH EVENING FOR PASSENGER SELF-SERVICE.
Recommendation: As this is a case where the service period exceeds four hours and pitchers for milk and milk-based creamer are refilled, the ship should develop and use a label system for individual pitchers indicating the 4 hour discard for the pitchers used. Such a system would designate each such 4 hour period when the pitchers were set-out for customers and would ensure that none would exceed a 4 hour period for use.
