inspections adequately using its own
staff located at its recognized site(s).
Accordingly, OSHA would continue to
deny use of such a program, or
withdraw its prior approval to use such
a program, when it determines that a
NRTL/applicant is not testing,
evaluating, and performing inspections
adequately using its own staff located at
its recognized site(s).
Additional Condition
As described above, while QPS has
testing and evaluation procedures,
OSHA could not review how QPS has
implemented them because QPS has not
used them for testing and certifying
products under the program. In
addition, as also described above, while
QPS has factory-inspection procedures,
it currently does not conduct regular
factory inspections. Some of these
testing- and factory-inspection
procedures are newly developed by
QPS. Therefore, OSHA also must review
the effectiveness of QPS’s testing and
evaluation procedures, and its factoryinspection program should OSHA grant
NRTL recognition to QPS, and do so
within a reasonable period after granting
recognition. Consequently, OSHA
proposes to recognize QPS
conditionally, i.e., subject to a later
determination of the effectiveness of
these procedures. OSHA would include
these conditions in the final notice
should OSHA recognize QPS as a NRTL.
These conditions apply solely to QPS’s
operations as a NRTL, and solely to
those products that it certifies for
purposes of enabling employers to meet
OSHA product-approval requirements.
These conditions would be in addition
to all other conditions that OSHA
normally imposes in its recognition of
an organization as a NRTL.
Imposing these conditions is
consistent with OSHA’s past recognition
of certain organizations as NRTLs that
met the basic recognition requirements,
but needed to further refine or
implement their procedures (for
example, see 63 FR 68306, 12/10/1998,
and 65 FR 26637, 05/08/2000). Given
the applicant’s current activities in
testing and certification, OSHA is
confident that QPS will properly
perform its activities in the areas noted
above.
Therefore, the following conditions
would apply should OSHA recognize
QPS under the NRTL Program:
Within 30 days of certifying its first
products under the NRTL Program, QPS will
notify the OSHA NRTL Program Director of
this activity so that OSHA may schedule its
first audit of QPS. At this first audit of QPS,
QPS must demonstrate that it properly
conducted testing, review, and evaluation,

and factory inspections, and, for inspections,
did so at the frequency set forth in the
applicable NRTL Program policy.
Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7. OSHA
will publish a public notice of this final
decision in the Federal Register.
Preliminary Finding on the Application
QPS submitted an acceptable
application for recognition as a NRTL.
OSHA’s review of the application file
and the results of the on-site review
indicate that QPS can meet the
requirements prescribed by 29 CFR
1910.7 for recognition to use the test
standards listed above. This preliminary
finding does not constitute an interim or
temporary approval of the application.
QPS corrected the discrepancies noted
by OSHA during the on-site review, and
these corrections are described in its
response to the on-site review report
(NA).
Following examination of the
application file and the on-site review
report, the NRTL Program staff
concluded that OSHA can grant the
applicant recognition as a Nationally
Recognized Testing Laboratory for its
Toronto, Ontario, facility, subject to the
conditions described above. The staff,
therefore, recommended preliminarily
that the Assistant Secretary approve the
application.
OSHA welcomes public comment as
to whether QPS meets the requirements
of 29 CFR 1910.7 for recognition as a
Nationally Recognized Testing
Laboratory. 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. OSHA must receive the written
request for an extension by the due date
for comments. OSHA will limit any
extension to 30 days unless the
requester justifies a longer period.
OSHA may deny a request for an
extension if it is not adequately
justified. To obtain or review copies of
the publicly available information in
QPS’s application and other pertinent
documents (including exhibits), and all
submitted comments, contact the Docket

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–2010–0046.
The NRTL Program staff will review
all comments submitted to the docket in
a timely manner, and, after addressing
the issues raised by these comments,
will recommend whether to grant NRTL
recognition to QPS. The Assistant
Secretary will make the final decision
on granting NRTL recognition, and, in
making this decision, may undertake
other proceedings prescribed in
