grantees meet target goals, and conduct
predictive analyses to identify
participant characteristics associated
with particular outcomes.
The evaluation will involve the
collection of data through in-depth
interviews of community college
administrators, faculty and staff and
partner organizations; focus groups of
faculty and students with disabilities
who participate in the Pathways to
Careers Grant Program; and web-based
surveys with telephone follow-up for
student participants. The interviews
with college administrators, faculty and
staff will provide information on how
the program interventions were
implemented, challenges to
implementation, and promising
practices. Interviews will focus on
program design, strengths and
weaknesses of infrastructure and
logistics, clarity of communication,
effectiveness of enrollment, intake, and
orientation, impressions of program
delivery, and access to support services.
Focus groups with Pathways to
Careers participants will collect
information about career planning
activity engagement, perceptions of the
availability of career planning supports,
satisfaction with and perceived
importance of career planning, and the
extent to which personal challenges
influence this process and career
choices. Focus groups with faculty who
teach the career tracks of the Pathways
to Careers program will focus on initial
experience and perspectives, and
availability of and involvement in
professional development.
The survey will collect information
from Pathways to Careers participants
about their college experience, selfadvocacy and self-determination, and
employment and earnings during and
after college. The survey will provide
data to assess short-term and longerterm outcomes associated with student
participation in the Pathways to Careers
program.
II. Desired Focus of Comments:
Currently, the Department of Labor is
soliciting comments concerning the
above data collection as part of the
evaluation of the Pathways to Careers
Grant Program. Comments are requested
to:
* Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
* evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
* enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
* minimize the burden of the
information collection on those who are
to respond, including the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submissions of responses.
III. Current Actions: At this time, the
Department of Labor is requesting
clearance for data collection for the
evaluation of the Pathways to Careers
Grant Program via in-depth interviews
with community college administrators,
faculty, staff, and partner organizations
of the program; focus groups with
faculty and students with disabilities
who participate in the Pathways to
Careers Grant Program; and an online
survey with telephone follow-up for
student participants.
Type of review: New information
collection request.
OMB Control Number: XXXX—0NEW
Affected Public: Community colleges
(participating in the Pathways to Careers
Grant Program); private sectorbusinesses or other for profits and not
for profit institutions (partners
organizations involved with the
Pathways to Careers Grant Program);
students with disabilities (participating
in the Pathways to Careers Grant
Program at the two colleges).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Notice of the Application for
Expansion
The Occupational Safety and Health
Administration is providing notice that
Canadian Standards Association (CSA)
is applying for expansion of its current
recognition as an NRTL. CSA requests
the addition of two test standards to its
NRTL scope of recognition.
OSHA recognition of an NRTL
signifies that the organization meets the
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.
Each NRTL’s scope of recognition
includes (1) the type of products the
NRTL may test, with each type specified
by its applicable test standard; and (2)
60409
the recognized site(s) that has/have the
technical capability to perform the
product-testing and productcertification activities for test standards
within the NRTL’s scope. Recognition is
not a delegation or grant of government
authority; however, recognition enables
employers to use products approved by
the NRTL to meet OSHA standards that
require product testing and certification.
The Agency processes applications by
an NRTL for initial recognition and for
an expansion or renewal of this
recognition, following requirements in
Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7. This
appendix requires that the Agency
publish two notices in the Federal
Register in processing an application. In
the first notice, OSHA announces the
application and provides its preliminary
finding. In the second notice, the
Agency provides its final decision on
the application. These notices set forth
the NRTL’s scope of recognition or
modifications of that scope. OSHA
maintains an informational Web page
for each NRTL, including CSA, which
details the NRTL’s scope of recognition.
These pages are available from the
OSHA Web site at https://www.osha.gov/
dts/otpca/nrtl/.
CSA currently has six facilities (sites)
recognized by OSHA for product testing
and certification, with its headquarters
located at: 178 Rexdale Boulevard,
Etobicoke, Ontario, M9W 1R3, Canada.
A complete list of CSA’s scope of
recognition is available at https://
www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/csa.html.
II. General Background on the
Application
CSA submitted an application, dated
January 29, 2015 (Exhibit 15–1
Application for Expansion of
Recognition, OSHA–2006–0042), to
expand its recognition to include two
additional test standards. OSHA staff
performed detailed analysis of the
application packet and reviewed other
pertinent information. OSHA did not
perform any on-site reviews in relation
to this application.
Table 1 below lists the appropriate
test standards found in CSA’s
application for expansion for testing and
certification of products under the
NRTL Program.

III. Preliminary Findings on the
Application
1–2012 (77 FR 3912, Jan. 25, 2012), and
29 CFR 1910.7.
CSA submitted an acceptable
application for expansion of its scope of
recognition. OSHA’s review of the
application file and pertinent
documentation indicate that CSA can
meet the requirements prescribed by 29
CFR 1910.7 for expanding its
recognition to include the addition of
these two test standards for NRTL
testing and certification listed above.
This preliminary finding does not
constitute an interim or temporary
approval of CSA’s application.
OSHA welcomes public comment as
to whether CSA meets the requirements
of 29 CFR 1910.7 for expansion of its
recognition as an NRTL. 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. Commenters
must submit the written request for an
extension by the due date for comments.
OSHA will limit any extension to 10
days unless the requester justifies a
longer period. OSHA may deny a
request for an extension if the request is
not adequately justified. To obtain or
review copies of the exhibits identified
in this notice, as well as comments
submitted to the docket, contact the
Docket Office, Room N–2625,
Occupational 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–2006–0042.
OSHA staff will review all comments
to the docket submitted in a timely
manner and, after addressing the issues
raised by these comments, will
recommend to the Assistant Secretary
for Occupational Safety and Health
whether to grant CSA’s application for
expansion of its scope of recognition.
The Assistant Secretary will make the
final decision on granting the
application. In making this decision, the
Assistant Secretary may undertake other
proceedings prescribed in Appendix A
to 29 CFR 1910.7.
OSHA will publish a public notice of
its final decision in the Federal
Register.
