## Details

- Record Type: 483
- Company Name: Signature Aviation - UGN
- Inspection Date: 2025-06-18
- Product Type: other
- Office Name: Chicago District Office
- Summary: An FDA inspection of Signature Aviation - UGN, an Airline Support Facility in Waukegan, IL, was conducted from June 10 to June 18, 2025. The inspection identified critical issues related to the prevention of contamination in drinking and culinary water systems. The main violation observed was the failure to properly design, construct, maintain, and operate piping systems, hydrants, taps, faucets, hoses, and equipment to prevent water contamination.

Specifically, inspectors noted a significant absence of backflow prevention devices (Reduced Pressure Zone type) on various potable water hoses, the potable water ice-making machine, and non-potable water fill hoses. Additionally, the facility failed to adequately label outlets for potable and non-potable water with permanent signs. Non-potable water outlets also lacked distinct fittings from those used for potable water, increasing the risk of cross-contamination. These findings, issued under an FDA Form 483 and referencing Section 704(b) of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, indicate conditions that could compromise water safety. Signature Aviation is required to implement corrective actions to resolve these deficiencies and ensure compliance with regulatory standards.
