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/
index.html.
OSHA 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.

II. Notice of Preliminary Findings
OSHA is providing notice that UL is
applying for renewal of its recognition
as a NRTL. This renewal covers UL’s
existing NRTL scope of recognition.
OSHA evaluated UL’s application for
renewal and preliminarily determined
that UL 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
E:\FR\FM\13JYN1.SGM

on-site review of UL’s facilities based on
its evaluations of UL’s application and
all other available information. This
information includes OSHA’s audits of
UL’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 UL 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
adequately justified. To obtain or review
copies of the publicly available
information in UL’s application and
other pertinent documents (including
exhibits), as well as all submitted
comments, 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–2009–0025.
The NRTL Program staff will review
all comments to the docket submitted in
a timely manner and, after addressing
the issues raised by these comments,
will make a recommendation to the
Assistant Secretary on whether to grant
UL’s application for renewal. The
Assistant Secretary will make the final
decision on granting the application
and, in making this decision, 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.

OSHA 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

submission includes a request for renewal and any additional

II. Notice of Preliminary Findings
OSHA is providing notice that UL is applying for renewal of its
recognition as a NRTL. This renewal covers UL's existing NRTL scope of
recognition. OSHA evaluated UL's application for renewal and
preliminarily determined that UL 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
[[Page 42012]]
on-site review of UL's facilities based on its evaluations of UL's
application and all other available information. This information
includes OSHA's audits of UL'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 UL 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
adequately justified. To obtain or review copies of the publicly
available information in UL's application and other pertinent documents
(including exhibits), as well as all submitted comments, 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-2009-0025.
The NRTL Program staff will review all comments to the docket
submitted in a timely manner and, after addressing the issues raised by
these comments, will make a recommendation to the Assistant Secretary
on whether to grant UL's application for renewal. The Assistant
Secretary will make the final decision on granting the application and,
in making this decision, 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.
