SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Notice of Final Decision
The Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA) hereby gives
notice that it is expanding recognition of
Intertek Testing Services NA, Inc.,
(ITSNA) as a Nationally Recognized
Testing Laboratory (NRTL). ITSNA’s
PO 00000

expansion covers the use of additional
test standards. OSHA’s current scope of
recognition for ITSNA may be found in
the following informational Web page:
https://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/
its.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 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. OSHA
maintains an informational Web page
for each NRTL that details its scope of
recognition. These pages can be
accessed from the Web site at https://
www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/
index.html.
In an earlier action involving ITSNA,
OSHA issued a Federal Register notice
modifying its recognition, along with
the recognition of other NRTLs, by
replacing or deleting test standards that
standards-developing organizations
previously revised or withdrew (70 FR
11273, March 8, 2005). In a subsequent
Federal Register notice, OSHA granted
ITSNA’s most recent application, which
was for an expansion of recognition (68
FR 62479, November 4, 2003).
ITSNA submitted an application,
dated August 25, 2005, (see Exhibit 48–
1, as cited in the preliminary notice) to
expand its recognition to include 56
additional test standards. One standard,
however, is already included in
ITSNA’s scope and another has been
withdrawn by the standards-developing
organization. The NRTL Program staff
has determined that the remaining 54
standards are ‘‘appropriate test
standards’’ within the meaning of 29
CFR 1910.7(c). In connection with the
expansion, OSHA staff performed an
onsite visit of the NRTL’s Cortland site
E:\FR\FM\29AUN1.SGM
29AUN1
Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 169 / Friday, August 29, 2008 / Notices
(its headquarters facility) in May 2006.
Based on this visit, the staff
recommends expansion of the ITSNA
recognition to include the 54 test
standards (see Exhibit 48–4). Therefore,
OSHA is approving these 54 test
standards for the expansion.
Based on this review, OSHA
published a preliminary notice
announcing the expansion application
in the Federal Register on January 28,
2008 (73 FR 4919). Comments were
requested by February 12, 2008, but no
comments were received in response to
this notice. OSHA is now proceeding
with this final notice to grant ITSNA’s
expansion application.
You may obtain or review copies of
all public documents pertaining to the
ITSNA application by contacting the

The designations and titles of the
above test standards were current at the
time of the preparation of this notice.
OSHA’s recognition of ITSNA, or any
NRTL, for a particular test standard is
limited to equipment or materials (i.e.,
products) for which OSHA standards
require third-party testing and
certification before use in the
workplace. Consequently, if a test
standard also covers any product(s) for
which OSHA does not require such
testing and certification, an NRTL’s
scope of recognition does not include
that product(s).
Test standards listed above may be
approved as an American National
Standard by the American National
Standards Institute (ANSI). However, for
convenience, we use the designation of
the standards-developing organization
for the standard as opposed to the ANSI
designation. Under our procedures, any
NRTL recognized for an ANSI-approved
test standard may use either the latest
proprietary version of the test standard
or the latest ANSI version of that
standard. You may contact ANSI to find
out whether a test standard is currently
ANSI-approved.
mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
Conditions
ITSNA must also abide by the
following conditions of the recognition,
in addition to those conditions already
required by 29 CFR 1910.7:
OSHA must be allowed access to
ITSNA’s facilities and records to
ascertain continuing compliance with
the terms of its recognition and to
perform investigations as OSHA deems
necessary;
If ITSNA has reason to doubt the
efficacy of any test standard it is using
under this program, it must promptly
inform the test standard-developing
organization of this concern and provide
that organization with appropriate

relevant information upon which its
concern is based;
ITSNA must not engage in, or permit
others to engage in, any
misrepresentation of the scope or
conditions of its recognition. As part of
this condition, ITSNA agrees that it will
allow no representation that it is either
a recognized or an accredited Nationally
Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL)
without clearly indicating the specific
equipment or material to which this
recognition applies, and also clearly
indicating that its recognition is limited
to certain products;
ITSNA must inform OSHA as soon as
possible, in writing, of any change of
ownership, facilities, or key personnel,
and of any major changes in its
operations as an NRTL, including
details of these changes;
ITSNA will meet all the terms of its
recognition and will always comply
with all OSHA policies pertaining to
this recognition; and
ITSNA will continue to meet the
requirements for recognition in all areas
where it has been recognized.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Notice of Final Decision
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) hereby
gives notice that it is expanding recognition of Intertek Testing
Services NA, Inc., (ITSNA) as a Nationally Recognized Testing
Laboratory (NRTL). ITSNA's expansion covers the use of additional test
standards. OSHA's current scope of recognition for ITSNA may be found
in the following informational Web page: https://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/
nrtl/its.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 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. OSHA maintains an informational Web page
for each NRTL that details its scope of recognition. These pages can be
accessed from the Web site at https://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/
index.html.
In an earlier action involving ITSNA, OSHA issued a Federal
Register notice modifying its recognition, along with the recognition
of other NRTLs, by replacing or deleting test standards that standards-
developing organizations previously revised or withdrew (70 FR 11273,
March 8, 2005). In a subsequent Federal Register notice, OSHA granted
ITSNA's most recent application, which was for an expansion of
recognition (68 FR 62479, November 4, 2003).
ITSNA submitted an application, dated August 25, 2005, (see Exhibit
48-1, as cited in the preliminary notice) to expand its recognition to
include 56 additional test standards. One standard, however, is already
included in ITSNA's scope and another has been withdrawn by the
standards-developing organization. The NRTL Program staff has
determined that the remaining 54 standards are ``appropriate test
standards'' within the meaning of 29 CFR 1910.7(c). In connection with
the expansion, OSHA staff performed an onsite visit of the NRTL's
Cortland site
[[Page 51007]]
(its headquarters facility) in May 2006. Based on this visit, the staff
recommends expansion of the ITSNA recognition to include the 54 test
standards (see Exhibit 48-4). Therefore, OSHA is approving these 54
test standards for the expansion.
Based on this review, OSHA published a preliminary notice
announcing the expansion application in the Federal Register on January
28, 2008 (73 FR 4919). Comments were requested by February 12, 2008,
but no comments were received in response to this notice. OSHA is now
proceeding with this final notice to grant ITSNA's expansion
application.
You may obtain or review copies of all public documents pertaining
to the ITSNA 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

Final Decision and Order
NRTL Program staff examined ITSNA's application, the assessor's
recommendation, and other pertinent information. Based upon this
examination and the assessor's recommendation, OSHA finds that ITSNA
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 ITSNA, subject to this limitation and these conditions.
Limitation
OSHA limits the expansion of ITSNA's recognition to testing and

The designations and titles of the above test standards were
current at the time of the preparation of this notice.
OSHA's recognition of ITSNA, or any NRTL, for a particular test
standard is limited to equipment or materials (i.e., products) for
which OSHA standards require third-party testing and certification
before use in the workplace. Consequently, if a test standard also
covers any product(s) for which OSHA does not require such testing and
certification, an NRTL's scope of recognition does not include that
product(s).
Test standards listed above may be approved as an American National
Standard by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). However,
for convenience, we use the designation of the standards-developing
organization for the standard as opposed to the ANSI designation. Under
our procedures, any NRTL recognized for an ANSI-approved test standard
may use either the latest proprietary version of the test standard or
the latest ANSI version of that standard. You may contact ANSI to find
out whether a test standard is currently ANSI-approved.
Conditions
ITSNA must also abide by the following conditions of the
recognition, in addition to those conditions already required by 29 CFR
1910.7:
OSHA must be allowed access to ITSNA's facilities and records to
ascertain continuing compliance with the terms of its recognition and
to perform investigations as OSHA deems necessary;
If ITSNA has reason to doubt the efficacy of any test standard it
is using under this program, it must promptly inform the test standard-
developing organization of this concern and provide that organization
with appropriate relevant information upon which its concern is based;
ITSNA must not engage in, or permit others to engage in, any
misrepresentation of the scope or conditions of its recognition. As
part of this condition, ITSNA agrees that it will allow no
representation that it is either a recognized or an accredited
Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL) without clearly
indicating the specific equipment or material to which this recognition
applies, and also clearly indicating that its recognition is limited to
certain products;
ITSNA must inform OSHA as soon as possible, in writing, of any
change of ownership, facilities, or key personnel, and of any major
changes in its operations as an NRTL, including details of these
changes;
ITSNA will meet all the terms of its recognition and will always
comply with all OSHA policies pertaining to this recognition; and
ITSNA will continue to meet the requirements for recognition in all
areas where it has been recognized.
Signed at Washington, DC, this 20th day of August, 2008.
Edwin G. Foulke, Jr.,
Assistant Secretary of Labor for Occupational Safety and Health.
