On the July 15-25 voyage, one passenger exhibited AGE symptoms and met the case definition of a reportable case. However, the submitted 24-hour report stated there were no ill passengers.

A 24-hour report was submitted for the ship's scheduled arrival in Detroit on July 21. It could not be verified when the report was submitted. However, the vessel changed itineraries and went to a Canadian port instead of Detroit on July 21. The vessel was notified of the itinerary change on July 12. No 24-hour report was submitted for the vessel's actual first US port from a foreign port (Cleveland, Ohio on July 22).

The vessel submitted a 24-hour report on July 12 for Mackinac Island. However, the vessel's first US port was Saulte Ste Marie, Michigan, on July 12.

One passenger met the AGE case definition for the July 6-15 voyage. However, the 24-hour report stated no passengers or guests were ill on the voyage.

On the June 26-July 6 voyage, one passenger exhibited AGE symptoms and met the case definition. However, the submitted 24-hour report stated no passengers and no crew were reportable cases.

On the June 18-June 27 voyage, three passengers were listed on the AGE log as reportable. However, the 24-hour report stated no passengers were reportable.

On the June 18-June 27 voyage, the boxes for reportable crew and passengers were left blank. The three entries on the AGE log were marked as reportable.

The dates at the top of the AGE log for the June 26-July 6 voyage were incorrect. The end date for the voyage was listed as July 4. Additionally, the total number of ill passengers was listed as 84. Staff stated there were 84 crew members on board for that voyage. The total number of crew and ill crew member boxes were blank.

The AGE log still had a column for passenger meal seat. This was removed on the 2018 AGE Log.

On July 15, a passenger exhibited AGE symptoms and reported to medical on July 16. The AGE log stated the passenger's last symptom was on July 17 at 1630. The passenger's medical record stated the passenger was released from isolation on July 17 at 1625. Staff stated the entry on the AGE log for the last symptom was incorrect.

The AGE log was incomplete for four voyages. For the July 15- July 24 voyage, the one entry on the log did not have information regarding whether a specimen was requested and received, whether antidiarrheal medication was dispensed, whether the passenger was reportable, and if the passenger had an underlying illness. For the July 6- July 15 voyage, the only entry on the log did not have information regarding whether a specimen was requested and received, whether antidiarrheal medication was dispensed, whether the passenger was reportable, and if the passenger had an underlying illness. On the June 27-July 4 voyage, the only entry on the log did not have information regarding whether a specimen was requested and received, whether antidiarrheal medication was dispensed, whether the passenger was reportable, and if the passenger had an underlying illness. On the June 18- June 27 voyage, all three entries were missing information about underlying illnesses. Staff stated when there is an underlying illness, it is noted in the patient's medical record. Additionally, another form was used to indicate when anti-diarrheal medical was dispensed.

On the July 15-25 voyage, one passenger became ill with AGE symptoms. On the AGE log, the column for whether the patient was reportable was left blank. At the top of the AGE log, the total number of ill passengers stated zero. However, the passenger met the definition of a reportable case.

There were several instances where information regarding whether a specimen was requested or received, whether anti-diarrheal medication was dispensed, whether a passenger was reportable, and if a passenger had an underlying illness was not indicated on the AGE log. Additionally, the boxes at the top of the AGE log to indicate reportable crew or passengers were either blank or incorrect. Additionally, the number of reportable passengers was incorrect on submitted 24-hour reports. Finally, when asked why the numbers were incorrect, staff stated that no one on board had been exhibiting AGE symptoms when the reports were submitted, and that passengers had recovered within 24 hours of exhibiting symptoms. Staff did not know the number of reportable cases at the top of the AGE log and the number of reportable cases on the 24-hour reports should be a cumulative number of passengers and crew members meeting the case definition, not the number of passengers and crew members meeting the case definition at the time of report submission.

The manifolds, curtains, and inside surfaces of the only dishwash machine on board were soiled with debris and build up. The machine was taken out of service and cleaned immediately.

There were two venues where no time control plans were posted or the time control plan did not list all items under time control in the area. Additionally, there were several items on the main dining room menus that required a consumer advisory, but the asterisk was not next to the food item.

During lunch preparation, the galley received provisions. The fresh food and vegetables were transported through the galley past the garbage room to the clean side of dishwash then to the dirty end of dishwash and placed on the soiled deck, staging them before they were transferred into the cooler. Items observed on the deck included cases of apples, cabbage, onions and other fruits.

After breakfast on embarkation day when the inspector entered this area it was noted that the thermometer inside the room indicated 49°F. Provisioning was not taking place and the door was closed when the inspector entered.. Two large hotel pans containing more than 10 potentially hazardous food items such as salad dressings, mayonnaise, and other items stored from dinner on the previous day were out of temperature. For example, gallon containers of thousand island dressing were measured at 47°F, a gallon container of mayonnaise was measured at 48°F, a gallon of tartar sauce was measured at 49°F, and blue cheese dressing was measured at 48°F. Further in the cooler an open 5 pound container of yogurt was measured at 49°F. This cooler also contained a small amount of milk and hard cheeses that were within temperature. The remainder of the cooler contained fresh fruit and vegetables.

The areas close to the bulkhead under the back of the preparation counters contained a significant amount of food debris and water beyond a day's accumulation.

This area was initially inspected at 0930 and a contractor was performing maintenance on this machine. The inspector returned at 1200 and the 4-hour discard label on the milk compartment for the automatic coffee maker had the same sticker from the morning that indicated to discard at 1000. The milk had been refilled since the morning. Staff stated that the contractor placed the item in service.

The profile and cover for the drain line under the bar area was not installed and open to the void space. This was a newly constructed bar and buffet area.

The penetrations from the counter-mounted combination oven were not sealed into the bulkhead. This was a newly constructed bar and buffet area.
