Abstract: Let $ A=\bigoplus_{i\in \mathbb{N}}A_i$ be an excellent homogeneous Noetherian graded ring and let $ M=\bigoplus_{n\in \mathbb{Z}}M_n$ be a finitely generated graded $ A$-module. We consider $ M$ as a module over $ A_0$ and show that the $ (S_k)$-loci of $ M$ are open in $ \operatorname{Spec}(A_0)$. In particular, the Cohen-Macaulay locus $ U^0_{CM}=\{{\mathfrak{p}}\in \operatorname{Spec}(A_0) \mid M_\mathfrak{p} \;$   is Cohen-Macaulay$ \}$ is an open subset of $ \operatorname{Spec}(A_0)$. We also show that the $ (S_k)$-loci on the homogeneous parts $ M_n$ of $ M$ are eventually stable. As an application we obtain that for a finitely generated Cohen-Macaulay module $ M$ over an excellent ring $ A$ and for an ideal $ I\subseteq A$ which is not contained in any minimal prime of $ M$, the $ (S_k)$-loci for the modules $ M/I^nM$ are eventually stable.
