SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Notice of the Application for Expansion The Occupational Safety and Health Administration is providing notice that TUVRNA is applying for expansion of its current recognition as an NRTL. TUVRNA requests the addition of one recognized testing and certification site to its NRTL scope of recognition. OSHA recognition of an NRTL signifies that the organization meets the requirements specified in Title 29, Code of Federal Regulations, Section 1910.7 (29 CFR 1910.7). Recognition is an acknowledgment that the organization can perform independent safety testing and certification of the specific products covered within its scope of recognition and is not a delegation or grant of government authority. Recognition enables employers to use products approved by the NRTL to meet OSHA standards that require product testing and certification. The Agency processes applications by an NRTL for initial recognition, and for an expansion or renewal of this recognition, following requirements in Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7. This appendix requires that the Agency publish two notices in the Federal Register in processing an application. In the first notice, OSHA announces the application and provides its preliminary finding. In the second notice, the Agency provides its final decision on the application. These notices set forth the NRTL’s scope of recognition or modifications of that scope. OSHA maintains an informational Web page for each NRTL, including TUVRNA, which details the NRTL’s scope of PO 00000 Frm 00060 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 recognition. These pages are available from the OSHA Web site at https:// www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/ index.html. TUVRNA currently has two facilities (sites) recognized by OSHA for product testing and certification, with its headquarters located at: TUV Rheinland of North America, Inc., 12 Commerce Rd., Newtown, CT 06470. A complete list of TUVRNA sites recognized by OSHA is available at https:// www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/ tuvrna.html. II. General Background on the Application TUVRNA submitted an application, dated January 9, 2015 (OSHA–2007– 0042; Exhibit 15–1—TUVRNA Request for Expansion—January 2015), to expand its recognition to include the addition of one recognized testing and certification site located at: TUV Rheinland of North America, Inc., 1279 Quarry Lane, Pleasanton, CA 94566. OSHA staff performed a detailed analysis of the application and other pertinent information. OSHA staff also performed an on-site review of TUVRNA’s testing facility in Pleasanton, CA on March 17, 2015, in which the assessors found some nonconformances with the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7. TUVRNA addressed these issues sufficiently, and OSHA staff recommended that OSHA should grant the application. III. Preliminary Finding on the Application TUVRNA submitted an acceptable application for expansion of its scope of recognition. OSHA’s review of the application file and its detailed on-site assessment indicate that TUVRNA can meet the requirements prescribed by 29 CFR 1910.7 for expanding its recognition to include the addition of the one site detailed above for NRTL testing and certification. This preliminary finding does not constitute an interim or temporary approval of TUVRNA’s application. OSHA welcomes public comment as to whether TUVRNA meets the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7 for expansion of its recognition as an NRTL. Comments should consist of pertinent written documents and exhibits. Commenters needing more time to comment must submit a request in writing, stating the reasons for the request. Commenters must submit the written request for an extension by the due date for comments. OSHA will limit any extension to 10 days unless the requester justifies a longer period. OSHA may deny a request for an E:\FR\FM\10AUN1.SGM 10AUN1 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 153 / Monday, August 10, 2015 / Notices extension if it is not adequately justified. To obtain or review copies of the publicly available information in TUVRNA’s application, including pertinent documents (e.g., exhibits) and all submitted comments, contact the Docket Office, Room N–2625, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, at the above address; these materials also are available online at https://www.regulations.gov under Docket No. OSHA–2007–0042. OSHA staff will review all comments to the docket submitted in a timely manner and, after addressing the issues raised by these comments, will recommend to the Assistant Secretary for Occupational Safety and Health whether to grant TUVRNA’s application for expansion of its scope of recognition. The Assistant Secretary will make the final decision on granting the application. In making this decision, the Assistant Secretary may undertake other proceedings prescribed in Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7. OSHA will publish a public notice of this final decision in the Federal Register. IV.

OSHA’s Web page includes information about the NRTL Program (see https:// www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/ index.html). SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Notice of Final Decision OSHA hereby gives notice of the expansion of the scope of recognition of Curtis-Straus LLC (CSL) as an NRTL. CSL’s expansion covers the addition of nine test standards to its scope of recognition. OSHA recognition of an NRTL signifies that the organization meets the requirements specified by 29 CFR 1910.7. Recognition is an acknowledgment that the organization can perform independent safety testing and certification of the specific products covered within its scope of recognition and is not a delegation or grant of government authority. As a result of recognition, employers may use products properly approved by the NRTL to meet OSHA standards that require testing and certification of the products. The Agency processes applications by an NRTL for initial recognition, or for expansion or renewal of this recognition, following requirements in Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7. This appendix requires that the Agency publish two notices in the Federal Register in processing an application. In the first notice, OSHA announces the application and provides its preliminary finding and, in the second notice, the Agency provides its final decision on PO 00000 Frm 00061 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 47955 the application. These notices set forth the NRTL’s scope of recognition or modifications of that scope. OSHA maintains an informational Web page for each NRTL that details its scope of recognition. These pages are available from the Agency’s Web site at https:// www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/ index.html. CSL submitted two applications, one dated August 29, 2014, and one dated February 25, 2015 (OSHA–2009–0026– 0057, CSL Exhibit 1—Expansion Application for Nine Standards and OSHA–2009–0026–0058, CSL Exhibit 2—Expansion Application for One Standard). These two applications were combined. OSHA staff performed a comparability analysis and reviewed other pertinent information. OSHA performed an on-site review in relation to these applications on January 27, 2015 to January 28, 2015. OSHA published the preliminary notice announcing CSL’s expansion application in the Federal Register on May 21, 2015 (80 FR 29342). The Agency requested comments by June 5, 2015, but it received no comments in response to this notice. OSHA now is proceeding with this final notice to grant expansion of CSL’s scope of recognition. To obtain or review copies of all public documents pertaining to the CSL’s application, go to www.regulations.gov or contact the Docket Office, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue NW., Room N–2625, Washington, DC 20210. Docket No. OSHA–2009–0026 contains all materials in the record concerning CSL’s recognition. II. Final Decision and Order OSHA staff examined CSL’s expansion application, its capability to meet the requirements of the test standards, and other pertinent information. Based on its review of this evidence, OSHA finds that CSL meets the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7 for expansion of its recognition, subject to the specified limitation and conditions listed below. OSHA, therefore, is proceeding with this final notice to grant CSL’s scope of recognition. OSHA limits the expansion of CSL’s recognition to testing and certification of products for demonstration of conformance to the test standards listed in Table 1 below. E:\FR\FM\10AUN1.SGM 10AUN1

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Notice of the Application for Expansion

    The Occupational Safety and Health Administration is providing 
notice that TUVRNA is applying for expansion of its current recognition 
as an NRTL. TUVRNA requests the addition of one recognized testing and 
certification site to its NRTL scope of recognition.
    OSHA recognition of an NRTL signifies that the organization meets 
the requirements specified in Title 29, Code of Federal Regulations, 
Section 1910.7 (29 CFR 1910.7). Recognition is an acknowledgment that 
the organization can perform independent safety testing and 
certification of the specific products covered within its scope of 
recognition and is not a delegation or grant of government authority. 
Recognition enables employers to use products approved by the NRTL to 
meet OSHA standards that require product testing and certification.
    The Agency processes applications by an NRTL for initial 
recognition, and for an expansion or renewal of this recognition, 
following requirements in Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7. This appendix 
requires that the Agency publish two notices in the Federal Register in 
processing an application. In the first notice, OSHA announces the 
application and provides its preliminary finding. In the second notice, 
the Agency provides its final decision on the application. These 
notices set forth the NRTL's scope of recognition or modifications of 
that scope. OSHA maintains an informational Web page for each NRTL, 
including TUVRNA, which details the NRTL's scope of recognition. These 
pages are available from the OSHA Web site at https://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/.
    TUVRNA currently has two facilities (sites) recognized by OSHA for 
product testing and certification, with its headquarters located at: 
TUV Rheinland of North America, Inc., 12 Commerce Rd., Newtown, CT 
06470. A complete list of TUVRNA sites recognized by OSHA is available 
at https://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/tuvrna.html.

II. General Background on the Application

    TUVRNA submitted an application, dated January 9, 2015 (OSHA-2007-
0042; Exhibit 15-1--TUVRNA Request for Expansion--January 2015), to 
expand its recognition to include the addition of one recognized 
testing and certification site located at: TUV Rheinland of North 
America, Inc., 1279 Quarry Lane, Pleasanton, CA 94566. OSHA staff 
performed a detailed analysis of the application and other pertinent 
information. OSHA staff also performed an on-site review of TUVRNA's 
testing facility in Pleasanton, CA on March 17, 2015, in which the 
assessors found some nonconformances with the requirements of 29 CFR 
1910.7. TUVRNA addressed these issues sufficiently, and OSHA staff 
recommended that OSHA should grant the application.

III. Preliminary Finding on the Application

    TUVRNA submitted an acceptable application for expansion of its 
scope of recognition. OSHA's review of the application file and its 
detailed on-site assessment indicate that TUVRNA can meet the 
requirements prescribed by 29 CFR 1910.7 for expanding its recognition 
to include the addition of the one site detailed above for NRTL testing 
and certification. This preliminary finding does not constitute an 
interim or temporary approval of TUVRNA's application.
    OSHA welcomes public comment as to whether TUVRNA meets the 
requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7 for expansion of its recognition as an 
NRTL. Comments should consist of pertinent written documents and 
exhibits. Commenters needing more time to comment must submit a request 
in writing, stating the reasons for the request. Commenters must submit 
the written request for an extension by the due date for comments. OSHA 
will limit any extension to 10 days unless the requester justifies a 
longer period. OSHA may deny a request for an

address; these materials also are available online at https://www.regulations.gov under Docket No. OSHA-2007-0042.
    OSHA staff will review all comments to the docket submitted in a 
timely manner and, after addressing the issues raised by these 
comments, will recommend to the Assistant Secretary for Occupational 
Safety and Health whether to grant TUVRNA's application for expansion 
of its scope of recognition. The Assistant Secretary will make the 
final decision on granting the application. In making this decision, 
the Assistant Secretary may undertake other proceedings prescribed in 
Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7. OSHA will publish a public notice of this 
final decision in the Federal Register.
