Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 35 / Wednesday, February 21, 2018 / Notices performed a 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 MET’s 7497 application for expansion for testing and certification of products under the NRTL Program. TABLE 1—PROPOSED LIST OF APPROPRIATE TEST STANDARDS FOR INCLUSION IN MET’S NRTL SCOPE OF RECOGNITION Test standard Test standard title UL 60947–1 ........................ UL 60947–4–1 * .................. Standard for Low Voltage Switchgear and Controlgear—Part 1: General Rules. Standard for Safety Low Voltage Switchgear and Controlgear—Part 4–1: Contactors and Motor-Starters— Electromechanical Contactors and Motor-Starters. * Represents the standard that OSHA proposes to add to the NRTL Program’s List of Appropriate Test Standards. III. Proposal To Add New Test Standard to the NRTL Program’s List of Appropriate Test Standards Periodically, OSHA will propose to add new test standards to the NRTL list of appropriate test standards following an evaluation of the test standard document. To qualify as an appropriate test standard, the Agency evaluates the document to (1) verify it represents a product category for which OSHA requires certification by a NRTL, (2) verify the document represents an end product and not a component, and (3) verify the document defines safety test specifications (not installation or operational performance specifications). OSHA becomes aware of new test standards through various avenues. For example, OSHA may become aware of new test standards by: (1) Monitoring notifications issued by certain Standards Development Organizations; (2) reviewing applications by NRTLs or applicants seeking recognition to include new test standard in their scopes of recognition; and (3) obtaining notification from manufacturers, manufacturing organizations, government agencies, or other parties. OSHA may determine to include a new test standard in the list, for example, if the test standard is for a particular type of product that another test standard also covers or it covers a type of product that no standard previously covered. In this notice, OSHA proposes to add a new test standard to the NRTL Program’s List of Appropriate Test Standards. Table 2, below, lists the test standard that is new to the NRTL Program. OSHA preliminarily determined that this test standard is an appropriate test standard and proposes to include it in the NRTL Program’s List of Appropriate Test Standards. OSHA seeks public comment on this preliminary determination. TABLE 2—TEST STANDARDS OSHA IS PROPOSING TO ADD TO THE NRTL PROGRAM’S LIST OF APPROPRIATE TEST STANDARDS Test standard Test standard title UL 60947–4–1 .................... Standard for Safety Low Voltage Switchgear and Controlgear—Part 4–1: Contactors and Motor-Starters— Electromechanical Contactors and Motor-Starters. daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES IV. Preliminary Findings on the Application MET submitted an acceptable application for expansion of its scope of recognition. OSHA’s review of the application file, and pertinent documentation, indicate that MET 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 MET’s application. OSHA welcomes public comment as to whether MET meets the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7 for expansion of its recognition as a 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 VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:57 Feb 20, 2018 Jkt 244001 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, at the above address. These materials also are available online at https://www.regulations.gov under Docket No. OSHA–2006–0028. 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 MET’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. PO 00000 Frm 00048 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 IV.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract

    Federal agencies are required by statute not to engage in 
discrimination on the bases of race, color, religion, sex, national 
origin, age, disability, genetic information, or retaliation. A federal 
employee, former employee, or job applicant who believes s/he was 
discriminated against has a right to file a complaint with the agency's 
office responsible for its Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) programs. 
Federal agencies must offer pre-complaint counseling or EEO alternative 
dispute resolution (EEO ADR) to individuals who allege that they were 
discriminated against by the agency. If pre-complaint counseling or EEO 
ADR does not resolve the dispute(s), the individual can file a formal 
discrimination complaint with the agency's EEO office.

II. Methods of Collection

    Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 1614 Section 
104 requires agencies to establish procedures for processing individual 
and class complaints of discrimination that include the provisions 
contained in 29 CFR 1614.105 through 1614.110 and in Sec.  1614.204, 
which are consistent with all other applicable Federal EEO regulations 
and complaint processing requirements contained in the Equal Employment 
Opportunity Commission (EEOC) Management Directives (MD).
    When an individual decides to pursue the formal discrimination 
complaint process, EEOC MD 110 requires that the formal complaint must 
be:
     In writing;
     Specific with regard to the claim(s) that the individual 
raised in pre-complaint counseling and that the person wishes to 
pursue;
     Must be signed by the individual and/or his or her 
representative; and
     Must be filed within fifteen (15) calendar days from the 
date s/he receives the Notice of Right to File a Discrimination 
Complaint.
    Consequently, NASA established NF-1355P form to ensure the 
individual who wishes to utilize the EEO process complies with the 
requirements listed above.
