2.9.1
Termination or Suspension of System Certification
Termination of Certification. Termination of
2.9.1.1
certification is a withdrawal of system certification. Once
certification is terminated, the system cannot be re-certified
without a complete SCA review of all work undertaken since the
last certification survey.
2.9.1.2
Suspension of Certification. Suspension of
certification is a temporary withdrawal of certification that
remains in effect while one or more actual or potential
violations of the terms of certification are investigated and
corrected. Use of the system during the suspension is not
authorized. Prior to reinstating system certification, an on-
site review of the problem area(s) by the SCA may be required.
