Domestic Audit Phase III
Phase III moved forward March 12, 2015 with follow-up audits of companies that scored 75% or less on their initial audits in Phase I and II. Locations that score 100% will not be audited during Phase III.
Audits started with companies that had inventories greater than 10,000 cartons and will follow with companies that had less than 10,000 cartons.
We also started with companies that scored the lowest and continue with companies with the highest scores, then adjusted to better minimize travel expenses.

REQUIREMENT FOR COVERED FUSES
AFSL Board approved to incorporate the following language
into each AFSL Standards for Consumer Fireworks:
“Fireworks devices subject to this Standard must have covered
fuses that successfully resist ignition from open flames, hot
surfaces and incendiary sparks when tested in accordance with
test procedures found in PYR 1129 – 2013 edition and any
additional requirements specified by AFSL” with the effective
date on August 1, 2015.
NFPA has withdrawn the covered fuse requirement. As a result,
AFSL will make a decision on this requirement during the
October 2015 Board Meeting.

Lots have been failed for each factory during the previous
month.

invoice to the factory, and provide a copy to the shipper that
requested testing for the Lots in question.
