52FR49370(December 31,1987):
Section 21.21, " Notification of failure to comply or existence of a defect" of 10 CFR Part 21 states, in part, that "...Each individual, corporation, partnership or other entity subject to the regulations in this part shall i
er (ii)ppropriate procedures to:
(1) Provide-for:
(i)Evaluatingdeviations adopt a informing the licensee or purchaser of the deviation in order that the licensee or purchaser may cause the deviation to be evaluated...."
Contrary to the above, it was revealed that MD Procedure No. 236-M-174, Revision B, " Compliance with Federal Regulation 10 CFR Part 21 " dated May 5, 1987 is not adequate to appropriately implement _ the requirements of 10 CFR Part 21. As an example, the MD procedure requires individual employees to notify their supervisors of deviations or noncompliances only after the individual employee has determined that a substantial safety hazard exists.

" substantial safety hazard" (88-01-01)..
