the proper use of identifying marks or
labels. OSHA staff performed a detailed
analysis of DEKRA’s application packet
and reviewed other pertinent
information to assess its control
procedures. OSHA preliminarily
determined that DEKRA has
demonstrated these capabilities through
the following:
• DEKRA has a quality-control
manual and detailed procedures to
address the steps involved to list and
certify products.
• DEKRA has a registered
certification mark.
• DEKRA has certification procedures
to address the authorization of
certifications and audits of factory
facilities. The audits apply to both the
initial evaluations and the follow-up
inspections of manufacturers’ facilities.
OSHA’s on-site assessment of
DEKRA’s facilities confirmed the
capabilities described in its application
packet. The assessors found some nonconformances with the requirements of
29 CFR 1910.7. DEKRA addressed these
issues sufficiently to meet the
applicable NRTL requirements.

C. Independence
Section 1910.7(b)(3) requires that the
NRTL be completely independent of
employers that are subject to the testing
requirements, and of any manufacturers
or vendors of equipment or materials
tested under the NRTL Program. The
revised NRTL Program Policies,
Procedures and Guidelines Directive,
CPL 01–004–001, allows NRTLs to
comply with the requirement in the
NRTL Program regulation that NRTLs be
‘‘completely independent of employers
subject to the tested equipment
requirements, and of any manufacturers
or vendors of equipment or materials
being tested for these purposes’’ (29 CFR
1910.7(b)(3)) by meeting the minimum
performance standards of Annex B of
the NRTL Program directive CPL 01–
004–001 with respect to impartiality.
The revised policy focuses on the
NRTL’s ability to effectively identify,
eliminate and control any risk to its
impartiality.
This policy requires the NRTL to
identify risks to impartiality on an
ongoing basis and when risks to
impartiality are identified, the NRTL
must demonstrate how it eliminates or
minimizes such risks. OSHA staff
performed a detailed analysis of
DEKRA’s application packet and
reviewed other pertinent information to
assess its independence. OSHA
preliminarily determined that DEKRA
has demonstrated independence
through the following:

Jkt 250001
• DEKRA is a privately-owned
organization, and OSHA found no
information regarding ownership that
would qualify as a conflict under
OSHA’s independence policy.
• DEKRA shows that it has none of
the relationships described in OSHA’s
independence policy or any other
relationship that could subject it to
undue influence when testing for
product safety.
• DEKRA has policies and procedures
in place to identify risks to impartiality
and when risks to impartiality are
found, DEKRA has policies and
procedures to eliminate or minimize
such risks.
D. Credible Reports and Complaint
Handling
Section 1910.7(b)(4) specifies that a
NRTL must maintain effective
procedures for producing credible
findings and reports that are objective
and free of bias. The NRTL must also
have procedures for handling
complaints and disputes under a fair
and reasonable system. OSHA staff
performed a detailed analysis of
DEKRA’s application packet and
reviewed other pertinent information to
assess its ability to produce credible
results and handle complaints. OSHA
preliminarily determined that DEKRA
has demonstrated these capabilities
through the following:
• DEKRA has detailed procedures
describing the content of test reports,
and other detailed procedures
describing the preparation and approval
of these reports.
• DEKRA has procedures for
recording, analyzing, and processing
complaints from users, manufacturers,
and other parties in a fair manner.
OSHA’s on-site assessments of
DEKRA’s facilities confirmed the
capabilities described in its application
packet. The assessors found some nonconformances with the requirements of
29 CFR 1910.7. DEKRA addressed these
issues sufficiently to meet the
applicable NRTL requirements.
OSHA’s review of the application file
and pertinent documentation, as well as
the results of the on-site assessments,
indicate that DEKRA can meet the
requirements prescribed by 29 CFR
1910.7 for recognition as a NRTL for its
sites located in Sterling, Virginia and
Arnhem, Netherlands.
OSHA’s preliminary finding does not
constitute an interim or temporary
approval of DEKRA’s application.
OSHA welcomes public comment as
to whether DEKRA meets the
requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7 for
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, for an extension
by the due date for comments. OSHA
will limit any extension to 10 days
unless the requester justifies a longer
time period. OSHA may deny a request
for an extension if it 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–3653, 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–2019–0009.
OSHA staff will review all comments
submitted to the docket in a timely
manner and, after addressing the issues
raised by these comments, will make a
recommendation to the Assistant
Secretary for Occupational Safety and
Health regarding DEKRA’s application
for recognition as a NRTL. 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
this final decision in the Federal
Register.

SUMMARY:
16677
Docket No. 50–133, Pacific Gas and
Electric Company, Humboldt Bay Power
Plant Unit No. 3, Exemption
I. Background
The Humboldt Bay Power Plant, Unit
3 (HBPP 3) facility is a
decommissioning power reactor located
in Humboldt County, California. Pacific
Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) is the
holder of HBPP 3 Facility Operating
License No. DPR–7. On July 2, 1976,
HBPP 3 was shut down for annual
refueling and to conduct seismic
modifications. In 1983, updated
economic analyses indicated that
restarting HBPP 3 probably would not
be cost-effective, and on June 27, 1983,
PG&E announced its intention to
decommission the unit. In 1984, PG&E
submitted the HBPP 3 SAFSTOR [Safe
Storage] Decommissioning Plan in
support of the application to amend the
HBPP 3 operating license to a
possession-only license. On July 16,
1985, the NRC issued Amendment No.
19 to the HBPP Unit 3 Operating
License (Agencywide Documents
Access and Management System
(ADAMS) Legacy No. 507260040) to
change the status to possess-but-notoperate, and the plant was placed into
a SAFSTOR status. On December 11,
2008, PG&E completed the transfer of
spent nuclear fuel (SNF) from the HBPP
3 spent fuel pool (SFP) into the
Humboldt Bay Independent Spent Fuel
Storage Installation (HB ISFSI). All
Greater-Than-Class-C (GTCC) waste was
transferred to the HB ISFSI in 2013.
PG&E began decontamination and
dismantlement of HBPP 3 in June 2009,
and currently plans to terminate the 10
CFR part 50 license in 2021.
II. Request/Action
Pursuant to 10 CFR 50.12, ‘‘Specific
exemptions,’’ PG&E has requested an
exemption from 10 CFR 50.54(w)(1) by
letter dated January 13, 2020 (ADAMS
Accession No. ML20013G734). The
