2. OMB approval number: 3150-0104.
3. Type of submission: Extension.
4. The form number, if applicable: NRC Forms 366, 366A, and 366B.
5. How often the collection is required or requested: On occasion
(as needed per section 50.73 of title 10 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (10 CFR), ``Licensee event report system'').
6. Who will be required or asked to respond: The holder of an
operating license under 10 CFR part 50, or a combined license under 10
CFR part 52 (after the Commission has made the finding under 10 CFR
52.103(g)), or a combined license under 10 CFR part 53 (after the
Commission has made the finding under 10 CFR 53.1452(g)).
7. The estimated number of annual responses: 344.

10. Abstract: Part of the NRC's function is to license and regulate
the operation of commercial nuclear power plants to ensure protection
of public health and safety and the environment in accordance with the
Atomic Energy Act of 1954 as amended. In order for the NRC to carry out
these responsibilities, licensees must report significant events in
accordance with 10 CFR 50.73, so that the NRC can evaluate the events
to determine what actions, if any, are warranted to ensure protection
of public health and safety or the environment. Section 50.73 requires
reporting on NRC Forms 366, 366A, and 366B.

3. Is there a way to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of
the information to be collected?
