The submission includes a request for renewal and any additional information the NRTL wishes to submit to demonstrate its continued compliance with the terms of its recognition and 29 CFR 1910.7. If OSHA has not conducted an on-site assessment of the NRTL’s headquarters and key sites within the past 18 to 24 months, it will schedule the necessary on-site assessments prior to the expiration date of the NRTL’s recognition. Upon review of the submitted material and, as necessary, the successful completion of the on-site assessment, OSHA announces its preliminary decision to grant or deny renewal in the Federal Register and solicit comments from the public. OSHA then publishes a final Federal Register notice responding to any comments and renewing the NRTL’s recognition for a period of five years, or denying the renewal of recognition. IAPMO initially received OSHA recognition as a NRTL on December 22, 2014, for a five-year period expiring on December 22, 2019. IAPMO submitted a timely request for renewal, dated March 11, 2019 (OSHA–2013–0030–0012), and retains its recognition pending OSHA’s final decision in this renewal process. The current address of the IAPMO facility recognized by OSHA and included as part of the renewal request is: 1. IAPMO, 5001 East Philadelphia Street, Ontario, California 91761. II. Notice of Preliminary Findings OSHA is providing notice that IAPMO is applying for renewal of its recognition as a NRTL. This renewal covers IAPMO’s existing NRTL scope of recognition. OSHA evaluated IAPMO’s application for renewal and preliminarily determined that IAPMO can continue to meet the requirements prescribed by 29 CFR 1910.7 for recognition. Accordingly, OSHA is making a determination that it does not need to conduct an additional on-site review of IAPMO’s facility based on its evaluations of IAPMO’s application and all other available information. This information includes OSHA’s audits of IAPMO’s recognized NRTL site during this recognition period, and the satisfactory resolution of nonconformances with the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7. This preliminary finding does not constitute an interim or temporary approval of the request. OSHA welcomes public comment as to whether IAPMO meets the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7 for renewal of their recognition as a NRTL.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    OSHA recognition of a NRTL signifies that the organization meets 
the requirements in Section 1910.7 of Title 29, Code of Federal 
Regulations (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. OSHA 
maintains an informational web page for each NRTL that details its 
scope of recognition available at https://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/.
    The agency processes applications by a NRTL for renewal of 
recognition following requirements in Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7. OSHA 
conducts renewals in accordance with the procedures in 29 CFR 1910.7, 
Appendix A, paragraph II.C. In accordance with these procedures, NRTLs 
submit a renewal request to OSHA, not less than nine months or no more 
than one year, before the expiration date of its current recognition. 
The submission includes a request for renewal and any additional 
information the NRTL wishes to submit to demonstrate its continued 
compliance with the terms of its recognition and 29 CFR 1910.7. If OSHA 
has not conducted an on-site assessment of the NRTL's headquarters and 
key sites within the past 18 to 24 months, it will schedule the 
necessary on-site assessments prior to the expiration date of the 
NRTL's recognition. Upon review of the submitted material and, as 
necessary, the successful completion of the on-site assessment, OSHA 
announces its preliminary decision to grant or deny renewal in the 
Federal Register and solicit comments from the public. OSHA then 
publishes a final Federal Register notice responding to any comments 
and renewing the NRTL's recognition for a period of five years, or 
denying the renewal of recognition.
    ITSNA initially received OSHA recognition as a NRTL on September 
13, 1989 (54 FR 37845). ITSNA's most recent renewal was granted on July 
14, 2014, for a five-year period, expiring on July 14, 2019. ITSNA 
submitted a timely request for renewal, dated September 13, 2018 (OSHA-
2007-0039-0032), and retains its recognition pending OSHA's final 
decision in this renewal process. The current addresses of ITSNA 
facilities recognized by OSHA and included as part of the renewal 
request are:
    1. ITSNA Cortland, 3933 U.S. Route 11, Cortland, New York 13045;

II. Notice of Preliminary Findings

    OSHA is providing notice that ITSNA is applying for renewal of its 
recognition as a NRTL. This renewal covers ITSNA's existing NRTL scope 
of recognition. OSHA evaluated ITSNA's application for renewal and 
preliminarily determined that ITSNA can continue to meet the 
requirements prescribed by 29 CFR 1910.7 for recognition. Accordingly, 
OSHA is making a determination that it does not need to conduct an 
additional on-site review of ITSNA's facilities based on its 
evaluations of ITSNA's application and all other available information. 
This information includes OSHA's audits of ITSNA's recognized NRTL 
sites during this recognition period, and the satisfactory resolution 
of non-conformances with the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7. This 
preliminary finding does not constitute an interim or temporary 
approval of the request.
    OSHA welcomes public comment as to whether ITSNA meets the 
requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7 for renewal of their 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. OSHA must receive the 
written request for an extension by the due date for comments. OSHA 
will limit any extension to 30 days unless the requester justifies a 
longer period. OSHA may deny a request for an extension if it is not
