This Federal Register notice, as well as other relevant information, is also available on OSHA’s Web page at https://www.osha.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background In a notice published in the Federal Register on June 26, 2013 (78 FR 38389), OSHA proposed to delete specific test standards from the scopes of recognition of several NRTLs, and incorporate replacement test standards into the scopes of recognition of several NRTLs. OSHA now is issuing its final determination with respect to that proposal. The NRTL Program recognizes organizations that provide productsafety testing and certification services to manufacturers. For the purposes of OSHA’s NRTL Program, these organizations test and certify specific products used in the workplace to U.S. consensus-based product-safety test standards. OSHA does not develop or issue these test standards, but generally relies on U.S. standards-development organizations (SDOs) accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). The products covered by the NRTL Program consist of those items for which OSHA safety standards require certification by an NRTL. The requirements affect electrical products and 38 other types of products. OSHA recognition of an organization as an NRTL signifies that the organization meets the legal requirements in the NRTL Program regulations at 29 CFR 1910.7 and the NRTL Program policies in CPL 1–0.3 NRTL Program Policies, Procedures, and Guidelines, December 2, 1999 (‘‘Directive’’). Recognition is an acknowledgement by OSHA that the NRTL has the capabilities to perform independent safety testing and certification of the specific products covered within the NRTL’s scope of recognition. Recognition of an NRTL by OSHA also allows employers to use products certified by that NRTL to meet those OSHA standards that require product testing and certification (29 CFR 1910.7(a)). An NRTL’s scope of recognition consists, in part, of specific test standard(s) approved by OSHA for use by the NRTL. Pursuant to the NRTL Program regulations, the NRTL must first request to have a test standard included in its scope of recognition. OSHA will grant the NRTL’s request only if the NRTL has the capability to PO 00000 Frm 00073 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 70329 test and examine equipment 1 and materials for workplace safety purposes and to determine conformance with the test standard for each relevant item of equipment or material that it lists, labels, or accepts (29 CFR 1910.7(b)(1)). Capability includes proper testing equipment and facilities, trained staff, written testing procedures, calibration programs, and quality-control programs. An organization’s recognition as an NRTL is, therefore, not for products, but for appropriate test standards covering a type of product(s) (29 CFR 1910.7(b)(1)). Additionally, for OSHA to consider a test standard appropriate, the test standard must be current, and it must specify the safety requirements for a specific type of product(s) (29 CFR 1910.7(c)). OSHA policy provides that a document specifies safety requirements for a specific type product(s) if the document includes ‘‘features, parts, capabilities, usage limitations, or installation requirements which if they did not exist would create a potential hazard in using the equipment’’ (Directive, App. D.IV.B). However, OSHA policy also provides that the document not ‘‘focus primarily on usage, installation, or maintenance requirements’’ (Directive, App. D.IV.B). Finally, as OSHA requires the testing and certification of certain products only (29 CFR 1910.7(a)), an NRTL’s scope of recognition should not include test standards that do not specify safety requirements for products for which OSHA does not require testing and certification (Directive, App. D.IV.A). II. OSHA’s Rationale for Deleting Specific Test Standards From, and Incorporating Replacement Test Standards Into, NRTLs’ Scopes of Recognition In its June 26, 2013, Federal Register notice, OSHA provided several reasons for proposing to delete specific test standards from the scopes of recognition of several NRTLs, and incorporate replacement test standards into the scopes of recognition of several NRTLs. OSHA restates these reasons below. A. Deleting Withdrawn Test Standards From, and Incorporating Replacement Test Standards Into, NRTLs’ Scopes of Recognition In the June 26, 2013, Federal Register notice, OSHA proposed to delete test standards withdrawn by SDOs from the scopes of recognition of several NRTLs. OSHA also proposed to replace some of the withdrawn (and deleted) test 1 In this notice, OSHA uses the terms ‘‘equipment’’ and ‘‘product’’ or ‘‘products’’ interchangeably. E:\FR\FM\25NON1.SGM 25NON1 70330 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 227 / Monday, November 25, 2013 / Notices sroberts on DSK5SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES standards with comparable test standards. The NRTL Program regulations require that appropriate test standards be current (29 CFR 1910.7(c)). A test standard withdrawn by an SDO is no longer considered an appropriate test standard (Directive, App. C.XIV.B). It is OSHA’s policy to remove recognition of withdrawn test standards by issuing a correction notice in the Federal Register for all NRTLs recognized for the withdrawn test standards. However, OSHA will recognize an NRTL for an appropriate replacement test standard if the NRTL has the requisite testing and evaluation capability to perform the replacement test standard. One method OSHA may use to determine such capability involves an analysis as to whether any testing and evaluation requirements of existing test standards in an NRTL’s scope are comparable (i.e., are completely or substantially identical) to the requirements in the replacement test standard. If OSHA’s analysis shows the replacement test standard does not require additional or different technical capability than an existing test standard(s), the replacement test standard is comparable to the existing test standard(s), and OSHA can add the replacement test standard to affected NRTLs’ scopes of recognition. If OSHA’s analysis shows the replacement test standard requires an additional or different technical capability, the replacement test standard is not comparable to any existing test standards. In such cases (i.e., when a test standard is not comparable), each affected NRTL that seeks to have OSHA add the replacement test standard to the NRTL’s scope of recognition must provide information to OSHA that demonstrates its technical capability to perform that replacement test standard. B. Deleting Inappropriate Test Standards From NRTLs’ Scopes of Recognition In the June 26, 2013, Federal Register notice, OSHA proposed to delete specific test standards from the scopes of recognition of several NRTLs based on a recent internal review in which the NRTL Program staff determined that several test standards currently in the NRTLs’ scopes of recognition did not conform to the definition of appropriate test standard outlined in NRTL Program regulations and policy. OSHA added these test standards to the affected NRTLs’ scopes of recognition before it issued the NRTL Program Directive; the Directive clarified the meaning of ‘‘appropriate test standard.’’ After issuing the Directive, OSHA deleted VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:53 Nov 22, 2013 Jkt 232001 some test standards from NRTLs’ scopes of recognition because those test standards were not appropriate test standards (see 70 FR 11273, March 8, 2005). After further review of the entire list of test standards included under the NRTL Program, OSHA determined that it should delete additional test standards from NRTLs’ scopes of recognition. In all cases, these deletions are programmatic corrections only, and do not reflect OSHA’s view of the technical merits of the test standards. In addition, deleting these documents from the NRTLs’ scopes of recognition does not prevent testing organizations (including NRTLs) from using the deleted documents for their testing activities. The NRTL Program staff identified four issues that would disqualify a test standard from being appropriate for the NRTL Program. First, the test standard provides the methodology for a test, and not the standards for testing. In such cases, the documentation for the test standard describes a test method rather than an appropriate test standard (29 CFR 1910.7(c)). As stated above, a test standard must specify the safety requirements for a specific type of product(s). A test method is a ‘‘specified technical procedure for performing a test’’ (Directive, App. B). As such, a test method is not an appropriate test standard. While an NRTL may use a test method to determine if a specific product meets certain safety requirements, a test method is not itself a safety requirement for that product. Second, several of the documents focus primarily on usage, installation, or maintenance requirements. As stated above, such documents are not appropriate test standards (Directive, App. D.IV.B). Third, some of the test standards are not appropriate because they cover products for which OSHA does not require testing and certification (Directive, App. D.IV.A). While OSHA initially recognized these test standards for use in the NRTL Program and many of these test standards specifically address safety testing, they do not address safety testing relevant to any OSHA standard that requires testing and certification under the NRTL Program. As such, OSHA proposed to remove these test standards from the NRTL Program’s list of appropriate test standards. Finally, several of the test standards cover electrical-product components, such as transformers, resistors, and capacitors used in television-type appliances. These test standards apply to types of components that have limitation(s) or condition(s) on their use PO 00000 Frm 00074 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 in that they are not appropriate for use as end-use products. These documents also specify that these types of components are for use only as part of an end-use product. NRTLs, however, evaluate such components only in the context of evaluating whether end-use products requiring NRTL approval are safe for use in the workplace. Testing such components alone would not indicate that the end-use products containing the components are safe for use. Accordingly, as a matter of policy, OSHA considers test standards covering such components are not appropriate test standards under the NRTL Program. OSHA notes, however, that it did not propose to delete from NRTLs’ scopes of recognition any test standards covering end-use products that contain such components.2 In addition, OSHA notes that, to conform to a test standard covering an end-use product, an NRTL must still determine that the components in the product comply with these components’ specific test standards, some of which OSHA proposed to delete in the June 26, 2013, Federal Register notice. In making this determination, NRTLs may test the components themselves, or accept the testing of a qualified testing organization that a given component conforms to its particular test standard. OSHA reviews each NRTL’s procedures to determine which approach the NRTL will use to address components, and reviews the end-use product testing to verify that the NRTL appropriately addresses the product’s components. III. Summary and Analysis of Comments OSHA provided 30 days for the public to submit comments on the proposed scope modification, and the comment period ended on July 26, 2013 (78 FR 38389, June 26, 2013). OSHA sought the following input on whether the actions OSHA proposed in the tables were appropriate: 1. OSHA sought comment on whether its proposed deletions and incorporations were appropriate, and whether it omitted any appropriate replacement test standard that is comparable to a withdrawn test standard. 2. In addition, the test standards OSHA proposed to delete included only 2 OSHA notes also that some types of devices covered by these documents, such as capacitors and transformers, may be end-use products themselves, and tested under other test standards applicable to such products. For example, the following test standard covers transformers that are end-use products: UL 1562 Standard for Transformers, Distribution, Dry-Type—Over 600 Volts. OSHA did not propose to delete such test standards from NRTLs’ scopes of recognition. E:\FR\FM\25NON1.SGM 25NON1 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 227 / Monday, November 25, 2013 / Notices sroberts on DSK5SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES withdrawn or otherwise inappropriate standards of which OSHA became aware on or before May 1, 2013. OSHA sought input on whether individual NRTLs’ scopes of recognition contain any additional withdrawn or otherwise inappropriate test standards. OSHA received two comments—one from the Canadian Standards Association (CSA), a currently recognized NRTL, and one from the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA), a trade association. Both comments are available for viewing at www.regulations.gov under docket number OSHA–2013–0012. The remainder of this section discusses, and responds to, these comments. A. Component Test Standards Both CSA and NEMA voiced concern about the effect of OSHA’s proposed deletion of component test standards from NRTLs’ scopes of recognition. CSA agreed that ‘‘[t]he withdrawal of component standards does not affect our certification or testing,’’ but asked how OSHA planned on ‘‘addressing component acceptance issues’’ if ‘‘clients or external bodies ask for [proof] of accreditation.’’ Similarly, NEMA wanted assurance that ‘‘NRTLs [will] continue to support [client data acceptance programs] even if the test standard is not appropriate under the NRTL Program.’’ These concerns do not address OSHA’s preliminary determination that test standards that apply only to components and not to end-use products are not appropriate test standards under the NRTL Program. Whether NRTLs choose to continue to support client data-acceptance programs that are outside the scope of the NRTL Program is a matter for NRTLs and their clients to negotiate. However, OSHA reiterates that, to conform to a test standard covering an end-use product, an NRTL must still determine that the components in the product comply with these components’ specific test standards, some of which OSHA proposed to delete in June 26, 2013, Federal Register notice. In making this determination, NRTLs may test the components themselves, or accept the testing and certification of a qualified testing organization that a given component conforms to its particular test standard. OSHA will continue to review each NRTL’s procedures to determine which approach the NRTL will use to address components, and will review the end-use product testing to verify that the NRTL appropriately addressed that product’s components. CSA also raised specific concern with the removal of UL 207, the Standard for VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:53 Nov 22, 2013 Jkt 232001 Nonelectrical Refrigerant Containing Components and Accessories. CSA stated that while they agree that UL 207 ‘‘covers refrigerant containing components that are used as components within end use products,’’ the test standard also covers ‘‘components that are added by themselves in an installation (adding a filter-drier into an air-conditioning installation, for example).’’ After reviewing UL 207, OSHA now concludes that UL 207 does not cover components that are not appropriate for use as end-use products. OSHA agrees with CSA that products tested to UL 207 may be added by themselves in an installation. However, OSHA points out that UL 207 covers products for which OSHA does not require testing and certification. As outlined in Section II. B. above, test standards are not appropriate when they cover products for which OSHA does not require testing and certification (Directive, App. D.IV.A). B. Inclusion of Additional Test Standards CSA commented that UL 60601–1, one of the replacement test standards proposed by OSHA, ‘‘by itself is insufficient to cover X-rays,’’ and asked whether OSHA would incorporate into its list of appropriate test standards the third edition of ANSI/AAMI ES60601– 1, which adopted some of the standards necessary to sufficiently cover X-rays. NEMA had a similar comment, but noted that the third edition of the ANSI/ AAMI standard was not a comparable replacement test standard; NEMA asked OSHA to publish a separate Federal Register notice addressing the issue of incorporating the third edition of the ANSI/AAMI standard. UL, the SDO responsible for UL 187, withdrew the test standard and determined that UL 60601–1 is the appropriate replacement test standard. While OSHA believes ANSI/AAMI ES60601–1 may also be an appropriate test standard, OSHA finds that ANSI/ AAMI ES60601–1 differs significantly from UL 187 and UL 60601–1, the standard designated to replace UL 187. Accordingly, in this Federal Register notice, OSHA only incorporates comparable replacement test standards into its list of appropriate test standards and into NRTLs’ scopes of recognition. Pursuant to OSHA’s existing policy, it incorporates new test standards into its list of appropriate test standards and into NRTLs’ scopes of recognition only when it (1) processes an NRTL’s application for recognition (either initial or expansion), or (2) incorporates into the scope of recognition of an NRTL a PO 00000 Frm 00075 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 70331 comparable replacement test standard for a withdrawn test standard (Directive, Ch. 2 and App. C.XIV.B), as it is doing through this Federal Register notice. OSHA may publish later a separate Federal Register notice proposing to incorporate ANSI/AAMI ES60601–1 into its list of appropriate test standards and into affected NRTLs’ scopes of recognition. CSA also asked OSHA to consider the following test standards, specific to x-ray equipment, as replacement test standards: ISO/IEC 60601–1–3, 60601– 2–8, 60601–2–28, 60601–32, 60601–2– 43, 60601–2–44, 60601–2–45, and 60601–2–54. Pursuant to 29 CFR 1910.7(c)(1), an appropriate test standard must be ‘‘[r]ecognized in the United States as a safety standard providing an adequate level of safety.’’ None of these test standards have been so recognized in the United States. Should any or all these test standards become so recognized in the United States, OSHA may publish a Federal Register notice proposing to incorporate one or more of the test standards into its list of appropriate test standards and into NRTLs’ scopes of recognition (as appropriate). NEMA also asked OSHA to publish a separate Federal Register notice addressing the issue of incorporating the IEC 60079, 61241, and 61779 series of safety standards. OSHA may publish a Federal Register notice proposing to incorporate the IEC 60079 and 61241 series of standards into its list of appropriate test standards. OSHA also will act on the pending applications for expansion referenced by NEMA. OSHA notes, however, that it will not consider incorporating the 61779 series of safety standards into NRTLs’ scopes of recognition because this series of standards include performance requirements only, and not safety requirements for specific equipment. While the 61779 series of test standards may address some safety concerns, they do not focus on product-specific safety requirements. Instead, they focus on the performance and accuracy that relate specifically to the operations of the product. As such, these performance standards are not appropriate test standards under the requirements of the NRTL Program found in 29 CFR 1910.7. IV. Deleting Specific Test Standards From, and Incorporating Replacement Test Standards Into, NRTLs’ Scopes of Recognition—Final Decision Table 1 lists the test standards that OSHA is deleting from the NRTL Program’s list of appropriate test standards. Table 1 also provides an abbreviated rationale for OSHA’s E:\FR\FM\25NON1.SGM 25NON1 70332 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 227 / Monday, November 25, 2013 / Notices actions, and lists the corresponding replacement test standards that OSHA incorporates into the NRTLs’ scopes of recognition (when applicable). In most cases, OSHA already incorporated the replacement test standards into the affected NRTLs’ scopes of recognition. OSHA takes one of the following actions with respect to the remaining cases: 1. OSHA incorporates, for all affected NRTLs, comparable test standards that SDOs adopted to replace the withdrawn (and deleted) test standards; or 2. OSHA incorporates, for all affected NRTLs, appropriate test standards that OSHA concludes are comparable to the withdrawn (and deleted) test standards. Table 1 lists the subject test standards and the action OSHA is taking with regard to each of these test standards, but does not indicate how these actions affect individual NRTLs’ scopes of recognition. Section V of this notice lists the modifications OSHA is making to each individual NRTL’s scope of recognition as a result of these actions.

Therefore, OSHA is incorporating the replacement test standard into affected NRTLs’ scopes of recognition without requiring affected NRTLs to further demonstrate capability, as specified by 29 CFR 1910.7(b)(1). OSHA notes that such action is not necessary for those NRTLs with scopes of recognition that already include the replacement test standard. V. Modification to NRTLs’ Scopes of Recognition—Final Determination The tables in this section (Table 2 thru Table 13) list, for each affected NRTL, the test standard(s) that OSHA is deleting from the scope of recognition of the NRTL and, when applicable, the comparable replacement test standard(s) that OSHA incorporates into the scope of recognition of that NRTL to replace withdrawn (and deleted) test standards. OSHA will incorporate into its informational Web pages the modifications OSHA is making to each NRTL’s scope of recognition. These Web pages detail the scope of recognition for each NRTL, including the test standards the NRTL may use to test and certify products under OSHA’s NRTL Program. OSHA also will add, to its ‘‘Composite 70335 List of Standards Recognized Under the NRTL Program’’ Web page, those test standards it is incorporating into affected NRTLs’ scopes of recognition, and add, to its ‘‘Composite List of Test Standards No Longer Recognized’’ Web page, those test standards that OSHA no longer recognizes or permits under the NRTL Program. Access to these Web pages is available at https:// www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/ index.html. OSHA is making the following revisions to the scopes of recognition of individual NRTLs: TABLE 2—TEST STANDARDS OSHA IS DELETING FROM OR INCORPORATING INTO THE SCOPE OF RECOGNITION OF THE CANADIAN STANDARDS ASSOCIATION (CSA) Deleted test standard UL 94 Tests for Flammability of Plastic Materials for Parts in Devices and Appliances.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    In a notice published in the Federal Register on June 26, 2013 (78 
FR 38389), OSHA proposed to delete specific test standards from the 
scopes of recognition of several NRTLs, and incorporate replacement 
test standards into the scopes of recognition of several NRTLs. OSHA 
now is issuing its final determination with respect to that proposal.
    The NRTL Program recognizes organizations that provide product-
safety testing and certification services to manufacturers. For the 
purposes of OSHA's NRTL Program, these organizations test and certify 
specific products used in the workplace to U.S. consensus-based 
product-safety test standards. OSHA does not develop or issue these 
test standards, but generally relies on U.S. standards-development 
organizations (SDOs) accredited by the American National Standards 
Institute (ANSI). The products covered by the NRTL Program consist of 
those items for which OSHA safety standards require certification by an 
NRTL. The requirements affect electrical products and 38 other types of 
products.
    OSHA recognition of an organization as an NRTL signifies that the 
organization meets the legal requirements in the NRTL Program 
regulations at 29 CFR 1910.7 and the NRTL Program policies in CPL 1-0.3 
NRTL Program Policies, Procedures, and Guidelines, December 2, 1999 
(``Directive''). Recognition is an acknowledgement by OSHA that the 
NRTL has the capabilities to perform independent safety testing and 
certification of the specific products covered within the NRTL's scope 
of recognition. Recognition of an NRTL by OSHA also allows employers to 
use products certified by that NRTL to meet those OSHA standards that 
require product testing and certification (29 CFR 1910.7(a)).
    An NRTL's scope of recognition consists, in part, of specific test 
standard(s) approved by OSHA for use by the NRTL. Pursuant to the NRTL 
Program regulations, the NRTL must first request to have a test 
standard included in its scope of recognition. OSHA will grant the 
NRTL's request only if the NRTL has the capability to test and examine 
equipment \1\ and materials for workplace safety purposes and to 
determine conformance with the test standard for each relevant item of 
equipment or material that it lists, labels, or accepts (29 CFR 
1910.7(b)(1)). Capability includes proper testing equipment and 
facilities, trained staff, written testing procedures, calibration 
programs, and quality-control programs. An organization's recognition 
as an NRTL is, therefore, not for products, but for appropriate test 
standards covering a type of product(s) (29 CFR 1910.7(b)(1)).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ In this notice, OSHA uses the terms ``equipment'' and 
``product'' or ``products'' interchangeably.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Additionally, for OSHA to consider a test standard appropriate, the 
test standard must be current, and it must specify the safety 
requirements for a specific type of product(s) (29 CFR 1910.7(c)). OSHA 
policy provides that a document specifies safety requirements for a 
specific type product(s) if the document includes ``features, parts, 
capabilities, usage limitations, or installation requirements which if 
they did not exist would create a potential hazard in using the 
equipment'' (Directive, App. D.IV.B). However, OSHA policy also 
provides that the document not ``focus primarily on usage, 
installation, or maintenance requirements'' (Directive, App. D.IV.B). 
Finally, as OSHA requires the testing and certification of certain 
products only (29 CFR 1910.7(a)), an NRTL's scope of recognition should 
not include test standards that do not specify safety requirements for 
products for which OSHA does not require testing and certification 
(Directive, App. D.IV.A).

II. OSHA's Rationale for Deleting Specific Test Standards From, and 
Incorporating Replacement Test Standards Into, NRTLs' Scopes of 
Recognition

    In its June 26, 2013, Federal Register notice, OSHA provided 
several reasons for proposing to delete specific test standards from 
the scopes of recognition of several NRTLs, and incorporate replacement 
test standards into the scopes of recognition of several NRTLs. OSHA 
restates these reasons below.

A. Deleting Withdrawn Test Standards From, and Incorporating 
Replacement Test Standards Into, NRTLs' Scopes of Recognition

    In the June 26, 2013, Federal Register notice, OSHA proposed to 
delete test standards withdrawn by SDOs from the scopes of recognition 
of several NRTLs. OSHA also proposed to replace some of the withdrawn 
(and deleted) test

[[Page 70330]]

standards with comparable test standards.
    The NRTL Program regulations require that appropriate test 
standards be current (29 CFR 1910.7(c)). A test standard withdrawn by 
an SDO is no longer considered an appropriate test standard (Directive, 
App. C.XIV.B). It is OSHA's policy to remove recognition of withdrawn 
test standards by issuing a correction notice in the Federal Register 
for all NRTLs recognized for the withdrawn test standards. However, 
OSHA will recognize an NRTL for an appropriate replacement test 
standard if the NRTL has the requisite testing and evaluation 
capability to perform the replacement test standard.
    One method OSHA may use to determine such capability involves an 
analysis as to whether any testing and evaluation requirements of 
existing test standards in an NRTL's scope are comparable (i.e., are 
completely or substantially identical) to the requirements in the 
replacement test standard. If OSHA's analysis shows the replacement 
test standard does not require additional or different technical 
capability than an existing test standard(s), the replacement test 
standard is comparable to the existing test standard(s), and OSHA can 
add the replacement test standard to affected NRTLs' scopes of 
recognition.
    If OSHA's analysis shows the replacement test standard requires an 
additional or different technical capability, the replacement test 
standard is not comparable to any existing test standards. In such 
cases (i.e., when a test standard is not comparable), each affected 
NRTL that seeks to have OSHA add the replacement test standard to the 
NRTL's scope of recognition must provide information to OSHA that 
demonstrates its technical capability to perform that replacement test 
standard.

B. Deleting Inappropriate Test Standards From NRTLs' Scopes of 
Recognition

    In the June 26, 2013, Federal Register notice, OSHA proposed to 
delete specific test standards from the scopes of recognition of 
several NRTLs based on a recent internal review in which the NRTL 
Program staff determined that several test standards currently in the 
NRTLs' scopes of recognition did not conform to the definition of 
appropriate test standard outlined in NRTL Program regulations and 
policy. OSHA added these test standards to the affected NRTLs' scopes 
of recognition before it issued the NRTL Program Directive; the 
Directive clarified the meaning of ``appropriate test standard.'' After 
issuing the Directive, OSHA deleted some test standards from NRTLs' 
scopes of recognition because those test standards were not appropriate 
test standards (see 70 FR 11273, March 8, 2005). After further review 
of the entire list of test standards included under the NRTL Program, 
OSHA determined that it should delete additional test standards from 
NRTLs' scopes of recognition. In all cases, these deletions are 
programmatic corrections only, and do not reflect OSHA's view of the 
technical merits of the test standards. In addition, deleting these 
documents from the NRTLs' scopes of recognition does not prevent 
testing organizations (including NRTLs) from using the deleted 
documents for their testing activities.
    The NRTL Program staff identified four issues that would disqualify 
a test standard from being appropriate for the NRTL Program. First, the 
test standard provides the methodology for a test, and not the 
standards for testing. In such cases, the documentation for the test 
standard describes a test method rather than an appropriate test 
standard (29 CFR 1910.7(c)). As stated above, a test standard must 
specify the safety requirements for a specific type of product(s). A 
test method is a ``specified technical procedure for performing a 
test'' (Directive, App. B). As such, a test method is not an 
appropriate test standard. While an NRTL may use a test method to 
determine if a specific product meets certain safety requirements, a 
test method is not itself a safety requirement for that product.
    Second, several of the documents focus primarily on usage, 
installation, or maintenance requirements. As stated above, such 
documents are not appropriate test standards (Directive, App. D.IV.B).
    Third, some of the test standards are not appropriate because they 
cover products for which OSHA does not require testing and 
certification (Directive, App. D.IV.A). While OSHA initially recognized 
these test standards for use in the NRTL Program and many of these test 
standards specifically address safety testing, they do not address 
safety testing relevant to any OSHA standard that requires testing and 
certification under the NRTL Program. As such, OSHA proposed to remove 
these test standards from the NRTL Program's list of appropriate test 
standards.
    Finally, several of the test standards cover electrical-product 
components, such as transformers, resistors, and capacitors used in 
television-type appliances. These test standards apply to types of 
components that have limitation(s) or condition(s) on their use in that 
they are not appropriate for use as end-use products. These documents 
also specify that these types of components are for use only as part of 
an end-use product. NRTLs, however, evaluate such components only in 
the context of evaluating whether end-use products requiring NRTL 
approval are safe for use in the workplace. Testing such components 
alone would not indicate that the end-use products containing the 
components are safe for use. Accordingly, as a matter of policy, OSHA 
considers test standards covering such components are not appropriate 
test standards under the NRTL Program. OSHA notes, however, that it did 
not propose to delete from NRTLs' scopes of recognition any test 
standards covering end-use products that contain such components.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ OSHA notes also that some types of devices covered by these 
documents, such as capacitors and transformers, may be end-use 
products themselves, and tested under other test standards 
applicable to such products. For example, the following test 
standard covers transformers that are end-use products: UL 1562 
Standard for Transformers, Distribution, Dry-Type--Over 600 Volts. 
OSHA did not propose to delete such test standards from NRTLs' 
scopes of recognition.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In addition, OSHA notes that, to conform to a test standard 
covering an end-use product, an NRTL must still determine that the 
components in the product comply with these components' specific test 
standards, some of which OSHA proposed to delete in the June 26, 2013, 
Federal Register notice. In making this determination, NRTLs may test 
the components themselves, or accept the testing of a qualified testing 
organization that a given component conforms to its particular test 
standard. OSHA reviews each NRTL's procedures to determine which 
approach the NRTL will use to address components, and reviews the end-
use product testing to verify that the NRTL appropriately addresses the 
product's components.

III. Summary and Analysis of Comments

    OSHA provided 30 days for the public to submit comments on the 
proposed scope modification, and the comment period ended on July 26, 
2013 (78 FR 38389, June 26, 2013). OSHA sought the following input on 
whether the actions OSHA proposed in the tables were appropriate:
    1. OSHA sought comment on whether its proposed deletions and 
incorporations were appropriate, and whether it omitted any appropriate 
replacement test standard that is comparable to a withdrawn test 
standard.
    2. In addition, the test standards OSHA proposed to delete included 
only

[[Page 70331]]

withdrawn or otherwise inappropriate standards of which OSHA became 
aware on or before May 1, 2013. OSHA sought input on whether individual 
NRTLs' scopes of recognition contain any additional withdrawn or 
otherwise inappropriate test standards.
    OSHA received two comments--one from the Canadian Standards 
Association (CSA), a currently recognized NRTL, and one from the 
National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA), a trade 
association. Both comments are available for viewing at 
www.regulations.gov under docket number OSHA-2013-0012. The remainder 
of this section discusses, and responds to, these comments.

A. Component Test Standards

    Both CSA and NEMA voiced concern about the effect of OSHA's 
proposed deletion of component test standards from NRTLs' scopes of 
recognition. CSA agreed that ``[t]he withdrawal of component standards 
does not affect our certification or testing,'' but asked how OSHA 
planned on ``addressing component acceptance issues'' if ``clients or 
external bodies ask for [proof] of accreditation.'' Similarly, NEMA 
wanted assurance that ``NRTLs [will] continue to support [client data 
acceptance programs] even if the test standard is not appropriate under 
the NRTL Program.'' These concerns do not address OSHA's preliminary 
determination that test standards that apply only to components and not 
to end-use products are not appropriate test standards under the NRTL 
Program. Whether NRTLs choose to continue to support client data-
acceptance programs that are outside the scope of the NRTL Program is a 
matter for NRTLs and their clients to negotiate. However, OSHA 
reiterates that, to conform to a test standard covering an end-use 
product, an NRTL must still determine that the components in the 
product comply with these components' specific test standards, some of 
which OSHA proposed to delete in June 26, 2013, Federal Register 
notice. In making this determination, NRTLs may test the components 
themselves, or accept the testing and certification of a qualified 
testing organization that a given component conforms to its particular 
test standard. OSHA will continue to review each NRTL's procedures to 
determine which approach the NRTL will use to address components, and 
will review the end-use product testing to verify that the NRTL 
appropriately addressed that product's components.
    CSA also raised specific concern with the removal of UL 207, the 
Standard for Nonelectrical Refrigerant Containing Components and 
Accessories. CSA stated that while they agree that UL 207 ``covers 
refrigerant containing components that are used as components within 
end use products,'' the test standard also covers ``components that are 
added by themselves in an installation (adding a filter-drier into an 
air-conditioning installation, for example).'' After reviewing UL 207, 
OSHA now concludes that UL 207 does not cover components that are not 
appropriate for use as end-use products. OSHA agrees with CSA that 
products tested to UL 207 may be added by themselves in an 
installation. However, OSHA points out that UL 207 covers products for 
which OSHA does not require testing and certification. As outlined in 
Section II. B. above, test standards are not appropriate when they 
cover products for which OSHA does not require testing and 
certification (Directive, App. D.IV.A).

B. Inclusion of Additional Test Standards

    CSA commented that UL 60601-1, one of the replacement test 
standards proposed by OSHA, ``by itself is insufficient to cover X-
rays,'' and asked whether OSHA would incorporate into its list of 
appropriate test standards the third edition of ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1, 
which adopted some of the standards necessary to sufficiently cover X-
rays. NEMA had a similar comment, but noted that the third edition of 
the ANSI/AAMI standard was not a comparable replacement test standard; 
NEMA asked OSHA to publish a separate Federal Register notice 
addressing the issue of incorporating the third edition of the ANSI/
AAMI standard.
    UL, the SDO responsible for UL 187, withdrew the test standard and 
determined that UL 60601-1 is the appropriate replacement test 
standard. While OSHA believes ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1 may also be an 
appropriate test standard, OSHA finds that ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1 differs 
significantly from UL 187 and UL 60601-1, the standard designated to 
replace UL 187. Accordingly, in this Federal Register notice, OSHA only 
incorporates comparable replacement test standards into its list of 
appropriate test standards and into NRTLs' scopes of recognition. 
Pursuant to OSHA's existing policy, it incorporates new test standards 
into its list of appropriate test standards and into NRTLs' scopes of 
recognition only when it (1) processes an NRTL's application for 
recognition (either initial or expansion), or (2) incorporates into the 
scope of recognition of an NRTL a comparable replacement test standard 
for a withdrawn test standard (Directive, Ch. 2 and App. C.XIV.B), as 
it is doing through this Federal Register notice. OSHA may publish 
later a separate Federal Register notice proposing to incorporate ANSI/
AAMI ES60601-1 into its list of appropriate test standards and into 
affected NRTLs' scopes of recognition.
    CSA also asked OSHA to consider the following test standards, 
specific to x-ray equipment, as replacement test standards: ISO/IEC 
60601-1-3, 60601-2-8, 60601-2-28, 60601-32, 60601-2-43, 60601-2-44, 
60601-2-45, and 60601-2-54. Pursuant to 29 CFR 1910.7(c)(1), an 
appropriate test standard must be ``[r]ecognized in the United States 
as a safety standard providing an adequate level of safety.'' None of 
these test standards have been so recognized in the United States. 
Should any or all these test standards become so recognized in the 
United States, OSHA may publish a Federal Register notice proposing to 
incorporate one or more of the test standards into its list of 
appropriate test standards and into NRTLs' scopes of recognition (as 
appropriate).
    NEMA also asked OSHA to publish a separate Federal Register notice 
addressing the issue of incorporating the IEC 60079, 61241, and 61779 
series of safety standards. OSHA may publish a Federal Register notice 
proposing to incorporate the IEC 60079 and 61241 series of standards 
into its list of appropriate test standards. OSHA also will act on the 
pending applications for expansion referenced by NEMA. OSHA notes, 
however, that it will not consider incorporating the 61779 series of 
safety standards into NRTLs' scopes of recognition because this series 
of standards include performance requirements only, and not safety 
requirements for specific equipment. While the 61779 series of test 
standards may address some safety concerns, they do not focus on 
product-specific safety requirements. Instead, they focus on the 
performance and accuracy that relate specifically to the operations of 
the product. As such, these performance standards are not appropriate 
test standards under the requirements of the NRTL Program found in 29 
CFR 1910.7.

IV. Deleting Specific Test Standards From, and Incorporating 
Replacement Test Standards Into, NRTLs' Scopes of Recognition--Final 
Decision

    Table 1 lists the test standards that OSHA is deleting from the 
NRTL Program's list of appropriate test standards. Table 1 also 
provides an abbreviated rationale for OSHA's

[[Page 70332]]

actions, and lists the corresponding replacement test standards that 
OSHA incorporates into the NRTLs' scopes of recognition (when 
applicable). In most cases, OSHA already incorporated the replacement 
test standards into the affected NRTLs' scopes of recognition. OSHA 
takes one of the following actions with respect to the remaining cases:
    1. OSHA incorporates, for all affected NRTLs, comparable test 
standards that SDOs adopted to replace the withdrawn (and deleted) test 
standards; or
    2. OSHA incorporates, for all affected NRTLs, appropriate test 
standards that OSHA concludes are comparable to the withdrawn (and 
deleted) test standards.
    Table 1 lists the subject test standards and the action OSHA is 
taking with regard to each of these test standards, but does not 
indicate how these actions affect individual NRTLs' scopes of 
recognition. Section V of this notice lists the modifications OSHA is 
making to each individual NRTL's scope of recognition as a result of 
these actions.

    Note 1: OSHA believes the replacement test standard is 
comparable to the withdrawn test standard. Therefore, OSHA is 
incorporating the replacement test standard into affected NRTLs' 
scopes of recognition without requiring affected NRTLs to further 
demonstrate capability, as specified by 29 CFR 1910.7(b)(1). OSHA 
notes that such action is not necessary for those NRTLs with scopes 
of recognition that already include the replacement test standard.

V. Modification to NRTLs' Scopes of Recognition--Final Determination

    The tables in this section (Table 2 thru Table 13) list, for each 
affected NRTL, the test standard(s) that OSHA is deleting from the 
scope of recognition of the NRTL and, when applicable, the comparable 
replacement test standard(s) that OSHA incorporates into the scope of 
recognition of that NRTL to replace withdrawn (and deleted) test 
standards.
    OSHA will incorporate into its informational Web pages the 
modifications OSHA is making to each NRTL's scope of recognition. These 
Web pages detail the scope of recognition for each NRTL, including the 
test standards the NRTL may use to test and certify products under 
OSHA's NRTL Program. OSHA also will add, to its ``Composite List of 
Standards Recognized Under the NRTL Program'' Web page, those test 
standards it is incorporating into affected NRTLs' scopes of 
recognition, and add, to its ``Composite List of Test Standards No 
Longer Recognized'' Web page, those test standards that OSHA no longer 
recognizes or permits under the NRTL Program. Access to these Web pages 
is available at https://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/.
    OSHA is making the following revisions to the scopes of recognition 
of individual NRTLs:

    Note 2: OSHA believes the replacement test standard is 
comparable to the withdrawn test standard. Moreover, OSHA already 
includes the replacement test standard in the NRTL's scope of 
recognition. Therefore, no further demonstration of capability is 
necessary at this time.


    Note 3: OSHA believes the replacement test standard is 
comparable to the withdrawn test standard. Therefore, OSHA is 
incorporating the replacement test standard into the NRTLs' scopes 
of recognition without requiring the NRTL to further demonstrate 
capability, as specified by 29 CFR 1910.7(b)(1).

    Note 2: OSHA believes the replacement test standard is 
comparable to the withdrawn test standard. Moreover, OSHA already 
includes the replacement test standard in the NRTL's scope of 
recognition. Therefore, no further demonstration of capability is 
necessary at this time.


    Note 3: OSHA believes the replacement test standard is 
comparable to the withdrawn test standard. Therefore, OSHA is 
incorporating the replacement test standard into the NRTLs' scopes 
of recognition without requiring the NRTL to further demonstrate 
capability, as specified by 29 CFR 1910.7(b)(1).

    Note 2: OSHA believes the replacement test standard is 
comparable to the withdrawn test standard. Moreover, OSHA already 
includes the replacement test standard in the NRTL's scope of 
recognition. Therefore, no further demonstration of capability is 
necessary at this time.


    Note 3:  OSHA believes the replacement test standard is 
comparable to the withdrawn test standard. Therefore, OSHA is 
incorporating the replacement test standard into the NRTLs' scopes 
of recognition without requiring the NRTL to further demonstrate 
capability, as specified by 29 CFR 1910.7(b)(1).
