Title	Part 21 Report - Improper Irradiation of Samples for Ball Valve Seats and Diaphragms
Event Description	The following information was received from ITT Engineered Valves, LLC by facsimile: ITT is submitting this report based on an NRC Inspection finding at Steris Isometric Services in Whippany, NJ, where samples may have received 3-9% less than the minimum target dosage specified during testing. ITT is in the process of determining how best to approach our customers with this information, and how to work with them to determine whether a defect as defined by 10 CFR Part 21 does exist. To that end, we are reviewing the impact of the variability on all projects that required radiated samples, particularly ball valve seats and diaphragms including the entire Ml diaphragm product line, and what effect if any this will have on our results and conclusions. We are also reviewing any ongoing projects with radiated samples from Steris, and making the necessary adjustments. Name and address of the individuals informing the Commission: S. T. Donohue ITT Engineered Valves, LLC 33 Centerville Road Lancaster, PA 17603 stephen.donohue@itt.com Senior Principal Engineer (717) 509-2200
