Download as PDF 12944 Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 44 / Thursday, March 5, 2020 / Notices III. Proposal To Add New Test Standards 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 a 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 four new test standards to the NRTL Program’s list of appropriate test standards. Table 2, below, lists the test standards that are new to the NRTL Program. OSHA preliminarily determined that these test standards are appropriate test standards and proposes to include them in the NRTL Program’s list of appropriate test standards. OSHA seeks public comment on this preliminary determination. TABLE 2—STANDARDS OSHA IS PROPOSING TO ADD TO THE NRTL PROGRAM’S LIST OF APPROPRIATE TEST STANDARDS Test standard UL UL UL UL Test standard title 62841–2–8 ................................ 62841–2–11 .............................. 62841–3–4 ................................ 62841–3–6 ................................ Safety Safety Safety Safety Requirements Requirements Requirements Requirements khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES IV. Preliminary Findings on the Applications SGS submitted acceptable applications for expansion of the scope of recognition. OSHA’s review of the application files, and pertinent documentation, indicate that SGS can meet the requirements prescribed by 29 CFR 1910.7 for expanding the recognition to include the addition of these twenty test standards for NRTL testing and certification listed above. This preliminary finding does not constitute an interim or temporary approval of SGS’s applications. OSHA welcomes public comment as to whether SGS meets the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7 for expansion of the recognition as a NRTL. OSHA additionally welcomes comments on the proposal to add four additional test standards to the NRTL Program’s list of appropriate test standards. 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.
