Item No.: 08
Site: Potable Water-Deck 0 - Recycling Center
Violation: The potable water piping was striped blue downstream of the reduced pressure zone (RPZ) assembly backflow prevention device, located near the deckhead. Staff initiated corrective action.
Recommendation: Stripe or paint potable water lines either in accordance with ISO 14726 (blue/green/blue) or blue only. Stripe or paint distillate and permeate lines directed to the potable water system in accordance with ISO 14726 (blue/gray/blue). 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. Identify all refrigerant brine lines and nonpotable chilled water lines in all food areas, such as on ice machines, ice cream machines, etc., with either ISO 14726 (blue/white/blue) or by another uniquely identifiable method to prevent cross-connections.
