SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Notice of the Application for
Expansion
OSHA is providing notice that TUV
Rheinland of North America, Inc.
(TUVRNA) is applying for an expansion
of current recognition as a NRTL.
TUVRNA requests the addition of nine
test standards 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
E:\FR\FM\15MRN1.SGM
15MRN1
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 48 / Monday, March 15, 2021 / Notices
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 the
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 TUVRNA, which details the
NRTL’s scope of recognition. These
pages are available from the OSHA
website at https://www.osha.gov/dts/
otpca/nrtl/.
TUVRNA currently has eight facilities
(sites) recognized by OSHA for product
testing and certification, with the
headquarters located at: TUV Rheinland
of North America, Inc., 12 Commerce
Road, Newtown, Connecticut 06470. A
complete list of TUVRNA sites
recognized by OSHA is available at
https://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/
tuv.html.

II. General Background on the
Application
TUVRNA submitted an application,
dated June 19, 2019 (OSHA–2007–
0042–0045), to expand recognition to
include the addition of nine test
standards. OSHA staff performed a
detailed analysis of the application
packets and reviewed other pertinent
information. OSHA did not perform any
on-site reviews in relation to this
application.
Table 1 lists the appropriate test
standards found in TUVRNA’s
applications for expansion for testing
and certification of products under the
NRTL Program.

III. Preliminary Finding on the
Application
TUVRNA submitted an acceptable
application for expansion of the scope
of recognition. OSHA’s review of the
application files indicates that TUVRNA
can meet the requirements prescribed by

recognition to include the addition of
these nine test standards for NRTL
testing and certification. This
preliminary finding does not constitute
an interim or temporary approval of
TUVRNA’s application.
OSHA welcomes public comment as
to whether TUVRNA 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
VerDate Sep<11>2014

longer time period. OSHA may deny a
request for an extension if it is not
adequately justified. To obtain or review

notice, as well as comments submitted
to the docket, contact the Docket Office,

to the docket submitted in a timely
manner. After addressing the issues
raised by these comments, staff will

Secretary of Labor for Occupational
Safety and Health on whether to grant
TUVRNA’s applications for expansion
of the scope of recognition. The

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Notice of the Application for Expansion
OSHA is providing notice that TUV Rheinland of North America, Inc.
(TUVRNA) is applying for an expansion of current recognition as a NRTL.
TUVRNA requests the addition of nine test standards 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
[[Page 14343]]
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 the 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 TUVRNA, which details the NRTL's scope of recognition. These
pages are available from the OSHA website at https://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/.
TUVRNA currently has eight facilities (sites) recognized by OSHA
for product testing and certification, with the headquarters located
at: TUV Rheinland of North America, Inc., 12 Commerce Road, Newtown,
Connecticut 06470. A complete list of TUVRNA sites recognized by OSHA
is available at https://www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/tuv.html.
II. General Background on the Application
TUVRNA submitted an application, dated June 19, 2019 (OSHA-2007-
0042-0045), to expand recognition to include the addition of nine test
standards. OSHA staff performed a detailed analysis of the application
packets and reviewed other pertinent information. OSHA did not perform
any on-site reviews in relation to this application.

applications for expansion for testing and certification of products
under the NRTL Program.

Safety--Part 3-10: Particular
Requirements For Transportable
Cut-Off Machines.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
III. Preliminary Finding on the Application
TUVRNA submitted an acceptable application for expansion of the
scope of recognition. OSHA's review of the application files indicates
that TUVRNA can meet the requirements prescribed by 29 CFR 1910.7 for
expanding recognition to include the addition of these nine test
standards for NRTL testing and certification. This preliminary finding
does not constitute an interim or temporary approval of TUVRNA's
application.
OSHA welcomes public comment as to whether TUVRNA 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 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, Occupational Safety
and Health Administration, U.S. Department of Labor. These materials
also are available online at https://www.regulations.gov under Docket
No. OSHA-2007-0042.
OSHA staff will review all comments to the docket submitted in a
timely manner. After addressing the issues raised by these comments,
staff will make a recommendation to the Assistant Secretary of Labor
for Occupational Safety and Health on whether to grant TUVRNA's
applications for expansion of the scope 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.
