Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 205 / Monday, October 25, 2010 / Notices
with this final notice to grant CSA’s
expansion application.
All public documents pertaining to
the CSA application are available for
review 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.
These materials also are available online
at https://www.regulations.gov under
Docket No. OSHA–2006–0042.
Final Decision and Order
NRTL Program staff examined CSA’s
application, the comparability analysis,
and other pertinent information. Based
on this examination and the analysis,
OSHA finds that CSA meets the
requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7 for
expansion of its recognition, subject to
the limitation and conditions specified
below. Pursuant to the authority in 29
CFR 1910.7, OSHA hereby expands the
recognition of CSA, subject to this
limitation and these conditions.
emcdonald on DSK2BSOYB1PROD with NOTICES
Limitation
OSHA limits the expansion of CSA’s
recognition to testing and certification
of products for demonstration of
conformance to the following test
standards, each of which OSHA
determines is an appropriate test
standard, within the meaning of 29 CFR
1910.7(c):
UL 498A Current Taps and Adapters
UL 515 Electrical Resistance Heat
Tracing for Commercial and Industrial
Applications
UL 1673 Electric Space Heating Cables
UL 1977 Component Connectors for
Use in Data, Signal, Control and
Power Applications
The designations and titles of these test
standards were current at the time of the
preparation of this notice.
OSHA’s recognition of 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 for which OSHA
does not require such testing and
certification, an NRTL’s scope of
recognition does not include that
product.
The American National Standards
Institute (ANSI) may approve the test
standards listed above as an American
National Standard. However, for
convenience, we may use the
designation of the standards-developing
organization for the standard as opposed
to the ANSI designation. Under the
NRTL Program’s policy (see OSHA
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:05 Oct 22, 2010
Jkt 223001
Instruction CPL 1–0.3, Appendix C,
paragraph XIV), any NRTL recognized
for a particular test standard may use
either the proprietary version of the test
standard or the ANSI version of that
standard. Contact ANSI to determine
whether a test standard is currently
ANSI-approved.
Signed at Washington, DC, on October 20,
2010.
David Michaels,
Assistant Secretary of Labor for Occupational
Safety and Health.
Conditions
DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
CSA also must abide by the following
conditions of the recognition, in
addition to those conditions already
required by 29 CFR 1910.7:
1. CSA must allow access to its
facilities and records to ascertain
continuing compliance with the terms
of its recognition, and to perform
investigations as OSHA deems
necessary;
2. If CSA 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;
3. CSA 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, CSA 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 that its
recognition is limited to certain
products;
4. CSA 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;
5. CSA will meet all the terms of its
recognition and will always comply
with all OSHA policies pertaining to
this recognition; and
6. CSA will continue to meet the
requirements for recognition in all areas
to which this recognition applies.

Determinations Terminating Investigations of Petitions for Worker
Adjustment Assistance
After notice of the petitions was published in the Federal Register
and on the Department's Web site, as required by Section 221 of the Act
(19 U.S.C. 2271), the Department initiated investigations of these
petitions.
The following determinations terminating investigations were issued
because the petitioner has requested that the petition be withdrawn.

74,616.................. Orbotech, Inc., A workers Redmond, WA
working on-site at TTM
Technologies.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following determinations terminating investigations were issued
in cases where these petitions were not filed in accordance with the
requirements of 29 CFR 90.11. Every petition filed by workers must be
signed by at least three individuals of the petitioning worker group.
Petitioners separated more than one year prior to the date of the
petition cannot be covered under a certification of a petition under
Section 223(b), and therefore, may not be part of a petitioning worker
group. For one or more of these reasons, these petitions were deemed
invalid.

74,488.................. Computer Sciences Newark, DE
Corporation (CSC).
74,496.................. Hallmark Cards, Inc......... Kansas City, MO
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following determinations terminating investigations were issued
because the petitioning groups of workers are covered by active
certifications. Consequently, further investigation in these cases
would serve no purpose since the petitioning group of workers cannot be
covered by more than one certification at a time.
