Site:
Ventilation-AC 1.03
|
Violation:
The condensate drain pan and droplet collector was inaccessible for inspection, maintenance, and cleaning. There was no sight window installed. Crew reported this would be the design for all units except unit AP 3.25. Crew reported there will be changes to the ventilation system in the upcoming June 2020 dry dock.
|
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.

Site:
Ventilation-AP 3.25
|
Violation:
There was excessive thick, fuzzy, brown growth on the inside of the door to the area of the unit with the condensate drain pan and droplet collector. This thick, fuzzy, brown growth was noted on the top and far side of the interior of the unit, as well as on the handle of the droplet collector and throughout the droplet collector. Crew immediately began cleaning the machine. This area of the old units (all other units on the vessel) was inaccessible for cleaning. It was unclear if there was a cleaning protocol in place for this area of the machine. Later during the inspection, crew reported this issue would be raised to a corporate level so that it could be addressed during the upcoming June 2020 dry dock
|
Recommendation:
Keep air handling units clean.

Potable Water-Laundry System Backflow Prevention
|
Violation:
There were no test results for the reduced pressure principle assembly backflow prevention device that was installed on 11 JAN 2020 where potable water connected to the laundry system. Additionally, in the laundry room, this potable water line was not striped blue/green/blue prior to the backflow prevention device.
|
Recommendation:
Inspect and test backflow prevention devices requiring testing (e.g., reduced pressure backflow prevention devices and pressure vacuum breakers) with a test kit after installation and at least annually. Maintain test results showing the pressure differences on both sides of the valves. Stripe or paint potable water lines either in accordance with ISO 14726 (blue/green/blue) or blue only. 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.

Violation:
The dough sheeter belt was made of a difficult-to-clean fabric and fraying on the edges. Staff said that a new belt had been ordered and that it was replaced frequently.
|
Recommendation:
Materials used in the construction of multiuse utensils and food contact surfaces of equipment must be: (1) durable, corrosion resistant, and nonabsorbent; (2) sufficient in weight and thickness to withstand repeated warewashing; (3) finished to have a smooth, easily cleanable surface; and (4) resistant to pitting, chipping, crazing, scratching, scoring, distortion and decomposition.

Galley-Various Equipment
|
Violation:
At the time of the inspection, it was noted that the following equipment was out of order: 1) moveable oven in the hot galley vegetable area, 2) static bottom oven of a double-stacked oven, 3) single stacked oven in room service area, 4) large bowl-style vegetable chopper. Each piece of equipment was clean during the inspection. Staff stated there were plans to replace some ovens during the upcoming dry dock, but not all equipment was planned to be repaired for use. Staff had sufficient cooking and hot holding capacity.
|
Recommendation:
Food contact equipment must be maintained in good repair and proper adjustment: (1) Equipment must be maintained in a state of repair and condition that meets the materials, design, construction, and operating specifications of these guidelines; and (2) Cutting or piercing parts of can openers must be kept sharp to minimize the creation of metal fragments that can contaminate food when the container is opened.

Violation:
There was no backflow prevention device for the potable water line attached to the shower hose in this area. Also coming from this line were two separate hose connections. One hose connection on the left was protected, but the hose connection on the right side was not.
|
Recommendation:
Provide a comprehensive cross-connection control program. Protect the following connections to the potable water system against backflow with air gaps or mechanical backflow prevention devices: (3) cabin shower hoses, toilets, whirlpool tubs, and similar facilities; (7) hose-bib connections.

Site:
Pantry-Deck 6 Compass Rose Pantry
|
Violation:
The light intensity at the rack for wine bottle storage in the pantry was measuring about 15 to 40 lux. A nearby lightbulb was out. Staff responded to immediately have the bulb replaced before the inspector left the area. After the lightbulb was replaced, the light intensity measured greater than 110 lux. This pantry area did not have food preparation, but only supportive storage and glasswashing for the Compass Rose.
|
Recommendation:
Ensure the light intensity is at least 110 lux (10 foot candles) at a distance of 75 centimeters (30 inches) above the deck when in use, in walk-in refrigerator units and dry storage areas, and in other areas and rooms during periods of cleaning. Ensure the light intensity is at least 110 lux (10 foot candles) behind and around mounted equipment, including counter-mounted equipment.

Food Service General-Decks in Food Areas
|
Violation:
The decks throughout all inspected food areas were in disrepair. Grouting was recessed. Tiles were broken and chipped. This included the Deck 7 Veranda galley, the main galley deck 3, and all warewashing areas. Notably, there was an entirely displaced tile in the hot galley that was discolored from repeated standing water. All these areas were difficult to clean and to dry after cleaning.
|
Recommendation:
Ensure decks, bulkheads, and deckheads in food preparation, warewashing, pantries, bars, and food and equipment storage areas are constructed and maintained for easy cleaning. Ensure decks, bulkheads, and deckheads in food preparation, warewashing, pantries, and storage areas are maintained in good repair.

Recreational Water Facilities-Midship Pool and Whirlpool Spa
|
Violation:
In order to refill the RWFs or add water, crew needed to hook up a garden hose to a hose connection and manually fill the tub of each facility. These facilities were filled and/or topped off only with potable water, and not necessarily water that was halogenated to the requirements of the facility. Crew would keep the facility closed until the facilities reached the proper halogenation levels. Crew indicated that connections to correct this had been partially installed but never completed. Additionally, the mechanical room for these facilities required operators to stoop, bend, and/or crawl to perform routine maintenance duties. Crew reported this was a similar set up for the aft whirlpool spa pump room. These set-ups are not allowed in the VSP 2018 Construction Guidelines. Crew indicated that the midship whirlpool spa and pool would be replaced with a new design in the upcoming June 2020 dry dock. Once renovated, these RWFs should comply with the VSP 2018 Construction Guidelines.
|
Recommendation:
Follow the 2018 VSP Construction Guidelines for the renovations that will be conducted during the major refit in June 2020.

Site:
Galley-
|
Violation:
The crew galley was not operational for cooking of hot foods during the inspection and had not been for an extended period of time. Staff stated that the bulkhead behind the cooking equipment needed additional insulation for fire safety and work was planned for the next dry dock in June 2020. The main galley which was servicing the crew mess was not designed for the capacity it now services.
|
Recommendation:
Ensure the crew galley is operational by performing necessary maintenance during dry dock.
