Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 184 / Tuesday, September 22, 2020 / Notices
B. Sites Requested for Recognition
OSHA limits DEKRA’s scope of
recognition to include the two sites
listed below:
1. DEKRA Certification, Inc., 405
Glenn Drive, Suite 12, Sterling, Virginia
20164; and
2. DEKRA Certification B.V. Arnhem
Meander 1051, 6825 MJ Arnhem,
Gelderland, Netherlands.
OSHA’s recognition of these sites
limits DEKRA to performing product
testing and certifications only to the test
standards for which the site has the
proper capability and programs, and for
the test standards in DEKRA’s scope of
recognition. This limitation is consistent
with the recognition that OSHA grants
to other NRTLs that operate multiple
sites.
C. Conditions
In addition to those conditions
already required by 29 CFR 1910.7,
DEKRA also must abide by the
following conditions of the recognition:
1. DEKRA must inform OSHA as soon
as possible, in writing, of any change of
ownership, facilities, or key personnel,
and of any major change in the
operations as a NRTL, and provide
details of the change(s);
2. DEKRA must meet all the terms of
the recognition and comply with all
OSHA policies pertaining to this
recognition; and
59557
3. DEKRA must continue to meet the
requirements for recognition, including
all previously published conditions on
DEKRA’s scope of recognition, in all
areas for which it has recognition.
IV. Final Decision To Add New Test
Standards to the NRTL Program’s List
of Appropriate Test Standards
In this notice, OSHA also announces
the addition of two 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 has
determined that these test standards are
appropriate test standards and will
include them in the NRTL Program’s
List of Appropriate Test Standards.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Notice of the Applications for
Expansion
OSHA is providing notice that QAI
Laboratories, Ltd. (QAI), is applying for
expansion of recognition as a NRTL.
QAI requests the addition of one test
standard to the NRTL scope of
recognition.
OSHA recognition of a NRTL signifies
that the organization meets the
requirements specified in 29 CFR
1910.7. Recognition is an
acknowledgment that the organization
can perform independent safety testing
and certification of the specific products
covered within the scope of recognition.
Each NRTL’s scope of recognition
includes (1) the type of products the
NRTL may test, with each type specified
by the applicable test standard; and (2)
the recognized site(s) that has/have the
technical capability to perform the
product-testing and productcertification activities for test standards
within the NRTL’s scope. Recognition is
not a delegation or grant of government
authority; however, recognition enables
employers to use products approved by
the NRTL to meet OSHA standards that
require product testing and certification.
The agency processes applications by
a NRTL for initial recognition and for an
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. 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, including QAI, which
details the NRTL’s scope of recognition.
These pages are available from the
OSHA website at https://www.osha.gov/
dts/otpca/nrtl/.
QAI currently has two facilities (sites)
recognized by OSHA for product testing
and certification, with headquarters
located at: QAI Laboratories, Ltd., 3980
North Fraser Way, Burnaby, BC, Canada,
V5J 5K5. A complete list of QAI’s scope
of recognition is available at https://
www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/qai.html.
II. General Background on the
Applications
QAI submitted three applications, one
dated October 16, 2017 (OSHA–2013–
0017–0015), to expand recognition to
include seventeen additional test
standards. This application was
amended on June 12, 2019 (OSHA–
2013–0017–0016) to remove some
standards from the original request and
add others. This revised application was
amended again on February 11, 2020
(OSHA–2013–0017–0017) to request
twenty-one additional standards to be
added to QAI’s NRTL scope of
recognition. 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.
Table 1 lists the appropriate test
standard found in QAI’s application to
expand for testing and certification of
products under the NRTL Program.

III. Preliminary Findings on the
Applications
QAI submitted acceptable
applications for expansion of
recognition. OSHA’s review of the
application file, and pertinent
documentation, indicates QAI can meet
the requirements prescribed by 29 CFR
1910.7 for expanding recognition to
include the addition of these twenty-one
test standards for NRTL testing and
certification listed above. This
preliminary finding does not constitute
an interim or temporary approval of
QAI’s applications.
OSHA welcomes public comment as
to whether QAI meets the requirements
of 29 CFR 1910.7 for expansion of
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. 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. To obtain or
review copies of the exhibits identified
in this notice, as well as comments
submitted to the docket, contact the
Docket Office at the above address.
These materials also are available online
at https://www.regulations.gov under
Docket No. OSHA–2013–0017.
OSHA staff will review all comments
to the docket submitted in a timely
manner. After addressing the issues
raised by these comments, the agency
will make a recommendation to the
Assistant Secretary for Occupational
Safety and Health whether to grant
QAI’s applications for expansion of
recognition. The Assistant Secretary
will make the final decision on granting
the applications. 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
the final decision in the Federal
Register.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Notice of the Applications for Expansion
OSHA is providing notice that QAI Laboratories, Ltd. (QAI), is
applying for expansion of recognition as a NRTL. QAI requests the
addition of one test standard to the NRTL scope of recognition.
OSHA recognition of a NRTL signifies that the organization meets
the requirements specified in 29 CFR 1910.7. Recognition is an
acknowledgment that the organization can perform independent safety
testing and certification of the specific products covered within the
scope of recognition. Each NRTL's scope of recognition includes (1) the
type of products the NRTL may test, with each type specified by the
applicable test standard; and (2) the recognized site(s) that has/have
the technical capability to perform the product-testing and product-
certification activities for test standards within the NRTL's scope.
Recognition is not a delegation or grant of government authority;
however, recognition enables employers to use products approved by the
NRTL to meet OSHA standards that require product testing and
certification.
The agency processes applications by a NRTL for initial recognition
and for an 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. 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,
including QAI, which details the NRTL's scope of recognition. These
pages are available from the OSHA website at https://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/.
QAI currently has two facilities (sites) recognized by OSHA for
product testing and certification, with headquarters located at: QAI
Laboratories, Ltd., 3980 North Fraser Way, Burnaby, BC, Canada, V5J
5K5. A complete list of QAI's scope of recognition is available at
https://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/qai.html.
II. General Background on the Applications
QAI submitted three applications, one dated October 16, 2017 (OSHA-
2013-0017-0015), to expand recognition to include seventeen additional
test standards. This application was amended on June 12, 2019 (OSHA-
2013-0017-0016) to remove some standards from the original request and
add others. This revised application was amended again on February 11,
2020 (OSHA-2013-0017-0017) to request twenty-one additional standards
to be added to QAI's NRTL scope of recognition. 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.
Table 1 lists the appropriate test standard found in QAI's
application to expand for testing and certification of products under
the NRTL Program.

III. Preliminary Findings on the Applications
QAI submitted acceptable applications for expansion of recognition.
OSHA's review of the application file, and pertinent documentation,
indicates QAI can meet the requirements prescribed by 29 CFR 1910.7 for
expanding recognition to include the addition of these twenty-one test
standards for NRTL testing and certification listed above. This
preliminary finding does not constitute an interim or temporary
approval of QAI's applications.
OSHA welcomes public comment as to whether QAI meets the
requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7 for expansion of 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. 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. To obtain or review copies of the exhibits
identified in this notice, as well as comments submitted to the docket,

OSHA staff will review all comments to the docket submitted in a
timely manner. After addressing the issues raised by these comments,
the agency will make a recommendation to the Assistant Secretary for
Occupational Safety and Health whether to grant QAI's applications for
expansion of recognition. The Assistant Secretary will make the final
decision on granting the applications. 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 the final decision in the
