−Removed: Management recognizes that any controls and procedures,

−Removed: Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving
−Removed: its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
−Removed: In light of the material weakness described
