SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
I. Background
OSHA recognition of an NRTL
signifies that the organization meets the
requirements specified by 29 CFR
1910.7. Recognition is an
PO 00000
Frm 00085
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

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 properly approved by the
NRTL to meet OSHA standards that
require testing and certification. OSHA
maintains an informational Web site for
each NRTL at https://www.osha.gov/dts/
otpca/nrtl/ that details its
scope of recognition.
OSHA processes applications
submitted by an NRTL for renewal of
recognition following requirements in
Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7. OSHA
conducts renewals in accordance with
the procedures in 29 CFR 1910.7, App.
A II.C. In accordance with these
procedures, NRTLs submit a renewal
request to OSHA between nine months
and one year before the expiration date
of its current recognition. A renewal
request includes a request for renewal
and any additional information
demonstrating its continued compliance
with the terms of its recognition and 29
CFR 1910.7. If OSHA has not conducted
an on-site assessment of the NRTL
headquarters and any key sites within
the past 18 to 24 months, it will
schedule the necessary on-site
assessment prior to the expiration date
of the NRTL’s recognition. Upon review
of the submitted material and, as
necessary, the successful completion of
the on-site assessment, OSHA
announces its preliminary decision to
grant or deny renewal in the Federal
Register and solicits comments from the
public. OSHA then publishes a final
Federal Register notice responding to
any comments and renewing the NRTL’s
recognition for a period of five years, or
denying the renewal of recognition.
Intertek Testing Services NA, Inc.
(ITSNA), initially received OSHA
recognition as an NRTL on September
13, 1989 (54 FR 37845). The most recent
renewal for ITSNA was on May 29,
2001, for a five-year period expiring on
May 29, 2006. ITSNA submitted a
timely request for renewal, dated
August 25, 2005 (see Ex. OSHA–2007–
0039–0015), and retained its recognition
pending OSHA’s final decision in this
renewal process. The current addresses
of ITSNA facilities recognized by OSHA
and included as part of the renewal
request are:
1. ITSNA Cortland, 3933 U.S. Route
11, Cortland, New York 13045;
2. ITSNA Atlanta, 1950 Evergreen

OSHA evaluated ITSNA’s application
for renewal and made a preliminary
determination that ITSNA can continue
to meet the requirements prescribed by
29 CFR 1910.7 for recognition. OSHA
conducted audits of the: ITSNA
Cortland site on August 25–27, 2009
and June 18–19, 2008; ITSNA Atlanta
site on March 12–13, 2008; ITSNA
Boxborough site on March 21–22, 2013;
ITSNA San Francisco site on April 23–
24, 2012; ITSNA Hong Kong site on
August 19–21, 2013; ITSNA Vancouver
site on October 16–17, 2008; and ITSNA
Dallas site on March 1–2, 2013. OSHA
found non-conformances with the
requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7. ITSNA
addressed these issues sufficiently to
meet the applicable NRTL requirements.
Accordingly, OSHA determined that it
did not need to conduct an on-site
review of ITSNA’s facilities for this
request for renewal based on its
evaluation of ITSNA’s application and
all other available information.
OSHA published the preliminary
notice announcing ITSNA’s renewal
request in the Federal Register on
February 24, 2014 (79 FR 10196). The
Agency requested comments by March
11, 2014, but received no comments in
response to this notice. OSHA now is
proceeding with this final notice to
grant ITSNA’s request for renewal of
recognition.
