35).

4. How often the collection is required: On occasion
5. Who will be required or asked to report: All directors and 
responsible officers of firms and organizations building, operating, or 
owning NRC licensed facilities as well as directors and responsible 
officers of firms and organizations supplying basic components and 
safety related design, analysis, testing, inspection, and consulting 
services to NRC licensed facilities or activities
6. An estimate of the number of responses: 350 annually (150 initial 
notifications, 150 written reports, and 50 interim reports)
7. An estimate of the average burden hours per response: 65 hours

10. Abstract: 10 CFR part 21 implements Section 206 of the Energy 
Reorganization Act of 1974, as amended. It requires directors and 
responsible officers of firms and organizations building, operating, 
owning, or supplying basic components to NRC licensed facilities or 
activities to report defects and noncompliances that could create a 
substantial safety hazard at NRC licensed facilities or activities. 
Organizations subject to 10 CFR Part 21 are also required to maintain 
such records as may be required to assure compliance with this 
regulation.

    The NRC staff reviews 10 CFR Part 21 reports to determine whether 
the reported defects in basic components and related services and 
failures to comply at NRC licensed facilities or activities are 
potentially generic safety problems.
    Copies of the submittal may be inspected or obtained for a fee from 
the NRC Public Document Room, 2120 L Street, NW (Lower Level), 
Washington, DC 20555-0001.
