Violations:
A summary of the violations found during the inspection are listed below.
Code | Description / Observation / Corrective Action |
312 | Critical Interruption of treatment Observation: Alarm for UV system was on during inspection, indicating that the unit was not functioning properly. Corrective Action: Replace or fix UV system so that it is operating properly. |
313 | Inadequate treatment Observation: Chlorine residual at kitchen sink was measured at 0.11 ppm; permit conditions requires a minimum chlorine residual of 0.5 ppm to ensure adequate residual disinfectant. Corrective Action: Adjust how much chlorine is added and/or retention time to ensure that chlorine residual remains above 0.5 ppm. Measure chlorine residual on a daily basis during camp season and maintain a residual log. Distribution lines may need to be flushed and/or shock chlorinated to control biological growth. |
317 | Inadequate or improper construction of water works Observation: Bypass valves are not locked off, and could be accidently engaged leading to nonpotable water entering the distribution system. Corrective Action: Ensure that bypass valves cannot be accidently engaged e.g., zip-tied |
317 | Inadequate or improper construction of water works Observation: UV system does not have a flow restrictor to ensure optimal dosage of UV light to the drinking water, or an automatic shut-off solenoid valve that shuts off the water supply in the event that the UV system is not operating properly. Corrective Action: Install flow restrictor and solenoid valve for UV system. |
319 | Inadequate Chemical Analysis Data Observation: Water chemistry has not been provided to Northern Health. Public Health significance - drinking water can contain hazardous chemicals that do not alter taste or smell, and can only be determined if safe to drink by an accredited laboratory. Corrective Action: Contact CALA accredited laboratory for chemical analysis of post-treatment (before reverse osmosis) drinking water and provide report to Northern Health. |
