Potable Water-
|
|
Violation:
In addition to the production chart, the vessel was keeping circular charts. Per the engineer, these charts were for production and bunkering. A review of the logs noted that none were initialed, some were not dated, and numerous charts had double recordings for both pH and free chlorine residual. There was no indication that the analyzer-chart recorder was calibrated. Additionally, many of the charts were out of order so it was not possible to identify the dates for the charts that were not dated.
|
|
Recommendation:
Ensure that halogen analyzer-chart recorder charts are changed, initialed, and dated daily and contain notations of any unusual water events in the potable water system.

Site:
Potable Water-
|
|
Violation:
The log for bacteriological sampling of the bunkered water and the water on the vessel did not consistently provide a record of the E. coli testing results. In a few cases, only a record of a positive test for coliforms was recorded with no indication of the result of the E. coli test. In other instances, only a positive result was recorded with no indication of what the positive test result was for. The record generally records the results for both coliforms and E. coli.
|
|
Recommendation:
Ensure that a minimum of four potable water samples per month are collected and analyzed for the presence of Escherichia coli and are collected randomly from locations on the forward, aft, upper, and lower decks of the vessel. Ensure that sample sites are changed each month.

Potable Water-
|
|
Violation:
The free chlorine residual log for production only allowed for recording tests results once per 4-hour shift. Given this, it was possible to exceed 4 hours between tests. In addition, there were a number of days where there were gaps in the log where it appeared that a test was not conducted. These periods were for one or two 4-hour shifts.
|
|
Recommendation:
Ensure that free residual halogen monitoring is performed at least hourly during the bunkering of potable water and performed at least once every 4 hours during the onboard production of potable water.
