SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR
seeks approval under the PRA for a
reinstatement with change to the Quick
Survey Business Questions Test. The
Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) will
conduct a second Operations Test of a
Quick Business Survey (QBS). The BLS
will conduct this test to build on the
results of the prior test to further
evaluate QBS survey processes and
operations in a possible production
environment. If successful, a QBS
would allow the BLS to collect
information about the U.S. Economy in
a more efficient manner than is
currently possible and would allow data
users to understand the impact of
specific events on the economy in a
timely manner. This information
collection request allows the agency to
use a revised version of the same
information collection under the OMB
Control Number provided with the
original approval and has been
classified as a reinstatement with
change, because:
• A previously approved collection
has expired or, the agency subsequently
decided to discontinue. This request
allows the agency to use a revised
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:22 Apr 19, 2019
Jkt 247001
version of the same information
collection under the OMB Control
Number provided with the original
approval.
• The agency made a change to the
ICR by increasing the sample size in
order to test refined sampling
methodologies.
• The agency updated the employer
costs for wages, salaries, and benefits
using more current (September 2018)
data.
The BLS Authorizing Statute
authorizes this information collection.
See 29 U.S.C 1, 2.
This proposed information collection
is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency
generally cannot conduct or sponsor a
collection of information, and the public
is generally not required to respond to
an information collection unless it is
approved by the OMB under the PRA
and displays a currently valid OMB
Control Number. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall generally be subject
to penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information if the
collection of information does not
display a valid Control Number. See 5
CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. For
additional substantive information
about this ICR, see the related notice
published in the Federal Register on
December 28, 2018 (83 FR 67360).
Interested parties are encouraged to
send comments to the OMB, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs at
the address shown in the ADDRESSES
section within thirty (30) days of
publication of this notice in the Federal
Register. In order to help ensure
appropriate consideration, comments
should mention OMB Control Number
1220–0192. The OMB is particularly
interested in comments that:
• 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
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Notice of Final Decision
OSHA hereby gives notice of the
expansion of the scope of recognition of
CSA Group Testing & Certification, Inc.
(CSA), as a NRTL. CSA’s expansion
covers the addition of one test standard
to its scope of recognition. Additionally,
OSHA announces the addition of one
test standard to the NRTL Program’s List
of Appropriate Test Standards.
OSHA recognition of a NRTL signifies
that the organization meets the
requirements specified by 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 properly approved by the
NRTL to meet OSHA standards that
require testing and certification of the
products.
The agency processes applications by
a NRTL for initial recognition, or for
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 a preliminary
finding and, in the second notice, the
agency provides the 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 that details its scope of
recognition. These pages are available
from the agency’s website at https://
www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/
index.html.
CSA submitted an application, dated
May 23, 2017 (OSHA–2006–0042–0012),
to expand recognition to include seven
additional test standards. OSHA staff
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. OSHA published a
Federal Register notice (82 FR 60051
December 18, 2017) announcing this
application, but referenced one
incorrect standard in the listing of
appropriate test standards (UL 498A).
OSHA further published a Federal
Register notice (83 FR 22289 May 14,
2018) granting recognition for the six
additional standards requested in the
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:22 Apr 19, 2019
Jkt 247001
application. UL 498A is already
included in the list of appropriate test
standards and in CSA’s scope of
recognition. This notice revises the
previous Federal Register notice for the
one remaining standard (UL 489A).
OSHA published the preliminary
notice announcing CSA’s expansion
application and proposed addition to
the NRTL List of Appropriate Test
Standards in the Federal Register on
February 12, 2019 (84 FR 3499). The
agency requested comments by February
28, 2019, but received no comments in
response to this notice. OSHA now is
proceeding with this final notice to
grant expansion of CSA’s scope of
recognition.
To obtain or review copies of all
public documents pertaining to CSA’s
application, go to https://
www.regulations.gov or contact the
Docket Office, Occupational Safety and
Health Administration, U.S. Department
of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue NW,
Room N–3653, Washington, DC 20210.
Docket No. OSHA–2006–0042 contains
all materials in the record concerning
CSA’s recognition.
II. Final Decision and Order
OSHA staff examined CSA’s
expansion application, the capability to
meet the requirements of the test
standards, and other pertinent
information. Based on a review of this
evidence, OSHA finds that CSA meets
the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7 for
expansion of the recognition, subject to
the specified limitation, and conditions
listed. OSHA, therefore, is proceeding
with this final notice to grant CSA’s
scope of recognition. OSHA limits the
expansion of CSA’s recognition to
testing and certification of products for
demonstration of conformance to the
test standard listed in Table 1.

Test Standards.
TABLE 2—TEST STANDARD OSHA IS
ADDING TO THE NRTL PROGRAM’S
LIST OF APPROPRIATE TEST STANDARDS
Test standard
Test standard title
UL 489A .........
Standard for Circuit Breakers
for Use in Communications Equipment
OSHA’s recognition of any NRTL for
a particular test standard is limited to
equipment or materials for which OSHA
standards require third-party testing and
certification before using them in the
workplace. Consequently, if a test
standard also covers any products for
which OSHA does not require such
testing and certification, a NRTL’s scope
of recognition does not include these
products.
The American National Standards
Institute (ANSI) may approve the test
standards listed above as American
National Standards. However, for
convenience, the use of the designation
of the standards-developing
organization for the standard as opposed
to the ANSI designation may occur.
Under the NRTL Program’s policy (see
OSHA Instruction CPL 1–0.3, Appendix
C, paragraph XIV), any NRTL
recognized for a particular test standard
may use either the proprietary version
of the test standard or the ANSI version
of that standard. Contact ANSI to
determine whether a test standard is
currently ANSI-approved.
A. Conditions
In addition to those conditions
already required by 29 CFR 1910.7, CSA
must abide by the following conditions
of the recognition:
1. CSA must inform OSHA as soon as

OSHA's recognition of any NRTL for a particular test standard is
limited to equipment or materials for which OSHA standards require
third-party testing and certification before using them in the
workplace. Consequently, if a test standard also covers any products
for which OSHA does not require such testing and certification, a
NRTL's scope of recognition does not include these products.
The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) may approve the
test standards listed above as American National Standards. However,
for convenience, the use of the designation of the standards-developing

the ANSI version of that standard. Contact ANSI to determine whether a
test standard is currently ANSI-approved.
A. Conditions
In addition to those conditions already required by 29 CFR 1910.7,
CSA must abide by the following conditions of the recognition:
1. CSA must inform OSHA as soon as possible, in writing, of any
change of ownership, facilities, or key personnel, and of any major
change in its operations as a NRTL, and provide details of the
change(s);
2. CSA must meet all the terms of its recognition and comply with
