Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 174 / Thursday, September 8, 2011 / Notices and costs) is minimal, collection instruments are clearly understood, and OSHA’s estimate of the information collection burden is accurate. The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (the OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et seq.) authorizes information collection by employers as necessary or appropriate for enforcement of the Act or for developing information regarding the causes and prevention of occupational injuries, illnesses, and accidents (29 U.S.C. 657). The OSH Act also requires that OSHA obtain such information with minimum burden upon employers, especially those operating small businesses, and to reduce to the maximum extent feasible unnecessary duplication of efforts in obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657). Certification of repair (1910.177(d)(3)(iv)). This paragraph requires that when restraining devices and barriers are removed from service because they are defective, they shall not be returned to service until they are repaired and reinspected. If the repair is structural, the manufacturer or a Registered Professional Engineer must certify that the strength requirements specified in (d)(3)(i) of the Standard have been met. The certification records are used to assure that equipment has been properly repaired. The certification records also provide the most efficient means for OSHA compliance officers to determine that an employer is complying with the Standard. Marking or tagging of wheel components (1910.177(e)(2)). This paragraph requires that defective wheels and wheel components ‘‘be marked or tagged unserviceable and removed from the service area.’’ Under this requirement, OSHA is providing employers with sufficient information from which they can derive the wording to use in marking the object or constructing a tag. Therefore, this provision imposes no paperwork burden because it falls within the portion of 5 CFR 1320(c)(2) that states, ‘‘The public disclosure of information originally supplied by the Federal government to the recipient for the purpose of disclosure to the public is not included within this definition [of ‘collection of information’]’’. sroberts on DSK5SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES II. Special Issues for Comment OSHA has a particular interest in comments on the following issues: • Whether the proposed information collection requirements are necessary for the proper performance of the Agency’s functions, including whether the information is useful; VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:26 Sep 07, 2011 Jkt 223001 • The accuracy of OSHA’s estimate of the burden (time and costs) of the information collection requirements, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; • The quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; and • Ways to minimize the burden on employers who must comply; for example, by using automated or other technological information collection and transmission techniques. III. Proposed Actions OSHA is requesting that OMB extend its approval of the information collection requirements contained in the Standard on Servicing Multi-Piece and Single Piece Rim Wheels (29 CFR 1910.177).

The Agency will summarize the comments submitted in response to this notice and will include this summary in the request to OMB. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Title: Servicing Multi-Piece and Single Piece Rim Wheels (29 CFR 1910.177). OMB Number: 1218–0219. Affected Public: Business or other forprofits. Number of Respondents: 80.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Notice of Final Decision

    The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is giving 
notice of the revocation of recognition of Wyle Laboratories, Inc. 
(Wyle) as a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL). OSHA took 
this action following the requirements under subsection II.E of 
Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7 (``subsection E'').
    OSHA recognition of an NRTL signifies that the organization meets 
the legal requirements specified in 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 product 
testing and certification.
    Subsection E describes the process that OSHA must use in revoking 
the recognition of an NRTL. This subsection sets forth three potential 
causes of revocation. In the event any cause applies, OSHA provides the 
NRTL with the opportunity to correct or rebut the alleged deficiencies 
leading to the proposed revocation. If the NRTL does not correct or 
reconcile alleged deficiencies, OSHA will propose, in writing, 
revocation of recognition. Revocation becomes effective in 60 days, 
unless the NRTL corrects the deficiency or requests a hearing before an 
Administrative Law Judge on the revocation action. Wyle did not request 
such a hearing.
    OSHA followed the process set forth in subsection E and is revoking 
Wyle's recognition as an NRTL. OSHA identified deficiencies in Wyle's 
testing and certification operations that Wyle did not correct. OSHA 
determined that, as a result of these deficiencies, Wyle failed to 
substantially satisfy the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7 and Appendix A, 
which is a cause for revocation under OSHA's NRTL Program regulations. 
OSHA already notified Wyle of the revocation decision, which is final. 
The DATES section above provides the effective date of revocation. 
Consequently, the Agency no longer accepts product certifications made 
by Wyle on or after this effective date.
    All public documents pertaining to the Wyle's recognition 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
