ACTION: Notice. cprice-sewell on PROD1PC62 with NOTICES AGENCY: SUMMARY: This notice announces the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s final decision expanding the recognition of MET Laboratories, Inc., (MET) as a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory under 29 CFR 1910.7. DATES: The expansion of recognition becomes effective on February 27, 2007. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: MaryAnn Garrahan, Director, Office of Technical Programs and Coordination Activities, NRTL Program, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue, NW., Room N–3655, Washington, DC 20210, or phone (202) 693–2110. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice of Final Decision The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) hereby gives VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:22 Feb 26, 2007 Jkt 211001 notice of the expansion of recognition of MET Laboratories, Inc., (MET) as a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL). MET’s expansion covers the use of additional test standards. OSHA’s current scope of recognition for MET may be found in the following informational Web page: https://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/ met.html. OSHA recognition of an NRTL signifies that the organization has met the legal requirements in Section 1910.7 of Title 29, Code of Federal Regulations (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. 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 the application. These notices set forth the NRTL’s scope of recognition or modifications of that scope. We maintain an informational Web page for each NRTL that details its scope of recognition. These pages can be accessed from our Web site at https:// www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/ index.html. MET submitted an application, dated August 23, 2005, (see Exhibit 39–1) to expand its recognition to include 10 additional test standards. MET later amended its application through a follow-up request to add 10 more test standards (see Exhibit 39–2). The NRTL Program staff determined that each of these standards is an ‘‘appropriate test standard’’ within the meaning of 29 CFR 1910.7(c). However, one of these standards is already included in MET’s scope. Therefore, OSHA is approving 19 test standards for the expansion. In connection with this request, OSHA did not perform an on-site review of MET’s NRTL testing facilities. However, NRTL Program assessment staff reviewed information pertinent to the request and recommended that MET’s recognition be expanded to include the 19 additional test standards listed below (see Exhibit 39–3). PO 00000 Frm 00120 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 8797 The preliminary notice announcing the expansion application was published in the Federal Register on August 17, 2006 (71 FR 47532). Comments were requested by September 1, but no comments were received in response to this notice. The most recent application processed by OSHA specifically related to MET’s recognition granted an expansion, and the final notice for this expansion was published on December 5, 2005 (70 FR 72470). You may obtain or review copies of all public documents pertaining to the MET application by contacting 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. NRTL1–88 contains all materials in the record concerning MET’s recognition. The current address of the MET facility already recognized by OSHA is: MET Laboratories, Inc., 914 West Patapsco Avenue, Baltimore, MD 21230. Final Decision and Order NRTL Program staff has examined the application, the assessor’s recommendation, and other pertinent information. Based upon this examination and the assessor’s recommendation, OSHA finds that MET has met the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7 for expansion of its recognition, subject to the limitation and conditions listed below. Pursuant to the authority in 29 CFR 1910.7, OSHA hereby expands the recognition of MET, subject to the following limitation and conditions. Limitation OSHA limits the expansion of MET’s recognition to testing and certification of products for demonstration of conformance to the test standards listed below. OSHA has determined that each of these standards meets the requirements for an appropriate test standard, within the meaning of 29 CFR 1910.7(c). UL 82 ................. UL 234 ...............
