Site:
Potable Water-Bunkering Chlorination Point
|
|
Violation:
During active bunkering of potable water from the port into the potable water tanks the measured free chlorine residuals on separate tests were 1.10 and 1.4 ppm on the ships manual kit. The inspector measured 0.85 ppm and1.25 ppm. Since potable water tank #6 port was being filled a test was taken directly from the tank, which measured 1.13 on the ships manual kit and 1.28 ppm on the inspectors kit. The chlorine residual was increased to over 2 ppm during the inspection.
|
|
Recommendation:
Continuously halogenate potable water to at least 2.0 mg/L (ppm) free residual halogen at the time of bunkering or production with an automatic halogenation device that is controlled by a flow meter and adjust the pH so it does not exceed 7.8. Ensure the amount of halogen injected during bunkering or production is controlled by a flow meter or a free halogen analyzer.

Site:
Recreational Water Facilities-RWF Equipment
|
|
Violation:
There were no flow meters installed to measure recirculation flow, to verify the turnover rates, or to calculate bather loads for each of the pools and whirlpool spas onboard. Staff stated these items were ordered.
|
|
Recommendation:
For RWFs with skim gutters, ensure that the fill level of the RWF is to the level of the skim gutters. Design recirculation systems and equipment, including chemical control equipment, UV disinfection systems, filter, and pumps to maintain adequate water chemistry control while operating at the following minimum turnover rates: (1) swimming pool (VSP 2005 Construction Guidelines or earlier): 6 hours; (2) swimming pool (VSP 2011 Construction Guidelines or later): 4 hours; (3) children's pool: 0.5 hours; (4) wading pool: 1 hour; (5) whirlpool spa: 0.5 hours; (6) spa pool: 2 hours; (7) interactive RWF or activity pool less than 610 millimeters (24 inches) deep: 1 hour; (8) interactive RWF or activity pool greater than 610 millimeters (24 inches) deep: 2 hours; and (9) baby-only water facility: 0.5 hours. Ensure an RWF slide that is combined with a pool has a turnover rate that matches the rate for the pool. Replace RWF filter pressure gauges, flow meters, and valves when they are defective. Maintain documentation on the maximum bather load for each RWF. Ensure the maximum bather load is based on the following factor: one person per five gallons (19 liters) per minute of recirculation flow. Monitor and adjust the RWF?s flow rates, free and combined halogen levels, pH, total alkalinity, and clarity as recommended by the manufacturer and to maintain optimum public health protection and water chemistry.

Site:
Recreational Water Facilities-RWF Equipment
|
|
Violation:
There were no monitoring analyzers installed to measure water returning and prior to the compensation tank for each RWF. A repair team was on board assessing the various RWF mechanical rooms and preparing for installation of the monitoring analyzers.
|
|
Recommendation:
Install chart recorders or electronic data loggers with security features that record pH and halogen measurements for each individual RWF. Ensure the sample line for the analyzer probe (monitoring) is either directly from the RWF or on the return line from each RWF and before the compensation tank. Install appropriate sample taps for analyzer calibration. In the event of equipment failure, measure free residual halogen and pH by a manual test kit at the RWF or return line at least hourly for whirlpool spas, spa pools, children?s pools, and wading pools and every 4 hours for all other RWFs. Record manual readings on a chart or log, retain for at least 12 months, and ensure that they are available for review during inspections. Complete repairs on malfunctioning halogen analyzer-chart recorders within 30 days of equipment failure. Provide an audible alarm in a continuously occupied watch station to indicate low and high free halogen and pH readings in each RWF.

Recreational Water Facilities-RWF Antientrapment Drains
|
|
Violation:
The dual gravity drains in the two pools on board had non-compliant drain covers and no alarms were installed at the pool area and at a space occupied 24 hours/day.
|
|
Recommendation:
For RWFs with gravity drainage and multiple drains (2 or more drains greater than 3 feet apart), provide either a standard design (not compliant with ASME A112.19.8) drain cover and an alarm, or an ASME A112.19.8 compliant antientrapment/antientanglement drain cover. Ensure the alarm is audible and sounds in both a continuously manned space and at the RWF. Ensure this alarm is for all draining: accidental, routine, and emergency.

Ventilation-Ventilation Fan Units
|
|
Violation:
An inspection was made of the deck 10 fan room AC 501, and from the access hatch meant for observing the condensate collection pan the view is only of the first 150 mm, which is partly blocked by the water droplet accumulator panel. Staff stated that throughout the ship these access hatches are installed, but the view in all but 3 fan units is exactly the same.
|
|
Recommendation:
Ensure air handling unit condensate drain pans and collection systems are able to be accessed for inspection, maintenance, and cleaning. Install sight windows or use other effective methods to allow for full inspection of condensate collection pans when original equipment access makes evaluation during operational inspections impractical. At this point a fiber optic device is recommended, due to the limited sight distance available at each drip pan.
