Fisher expects to complete this evaluation by August 26, 2011. At this time, if the review determines that a failure to comply condition exits, Fisher will issue notification per the requirements of 10 CFR 21.21(b).
- * * UPDATE AT 1300 EDT ON 9/7/11 FROM FITZGERALD TO HUFFMAN VIA FACSIMILE * * *
Fisher Controls is providing this final notification per the requirements of 10CFR21.21(a).
On August 3, 2011, Fisher provided an interim report concerning an audit of one of Fisher Control's suppliers and the determination that weld rod certified by an ISO process (instead of ASME) might have been used for weld repair of castings intended for nuclear service.
Fisher and the supplier have completed the process of reviewing all orders affected by this issue and did not find any orders that used the subject non-conforming material.
Therefore, Fisher will not issue a notification per the requirements of 10CFR21.21(b), because the review determined that a failure to comply condition does not exist.
