Information Collection: Requirements for Renewal of Operating Licenses for Nuclear Power Plants, 27119-27120 [2021-10548]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 95 / Wednesday, May 19, 2021 / Notices In this notice, OSHA also announces the final decision to add four 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 determined that these test standards are appropriate test standards and will add 27119 them to the NRTL Program’s List of Appropriate Test Standards. TABLE 2—TEST STANDARDS OSHA IS ADDING TO THE NRTL PROGRAM’S LIST OF APPROPRIATE TEST STANDARDS Test standard Test standard title UL 61010–2–032 ..... Standard for Safety Requirements for Electrical Equipment for Measurement, Control and Laboratory Use—Part 2–032: Particular Requirements for Hand-Held and Hand-Manipulated Current Sensors for Electrical Test and Measurement. Standard for Safety Requirements for Electrical Equipment for Measurement, Control and Laboratory Use—Part 2–033: Particular Requirements for Hand-Held Multimeters for Domestic and Professional Use, Capable of Measuring Mains Voltage. Safety Requirements for Electrical Equipment for Measurement, Control and Laboratory Use—Part 2–040: Particular Requirements for Sterilizers and Washer-Disinfectors Used to Treat Medical Materials. Safety Requirements for Electrical Equipment for Measurement, Control and Laboratory Use—Part 2–201: Particular Requirements for Control Equipment. UL 61010–2–033 ..... UL 61010–2–040 ..... UL 61010–2–201 ..... OSHA’s recognition of any NRTL for a particular test standard is limited to equipment or materials for which OSHA standards require third-party testing and certification before using them in the workplace. Consequently, if a test standard also covers any products for which OSHA does not require such testing and certification, a NRTL’s scope of recognition does not include these products. The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) may approve the test standards listed above as American National Standards. However, for convenience, we may use the designation of the standards-developing organization for the standard as opposed to the ANSI designation. Under the NRTL Program’s policy (see OSHA Instruction CPL 1–0.3, Appendix C, paragraph XIV), any NRTL recognized for a particular test standard may use either the proprietary version of the test standard or the ANSI version of that standard. Contact ANSI to determine whether a test standard is currently ANSI-approved. khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES A. Conditions In addition to those conditions already required by 29 CFR 1910.7, CSA must abide by the following conditions of the recognition: 1. CSA must inform OSHA as soon as possible, in writing, of any change of ownership, facilities, or key personnel, and of any major change in its operations as a NRTL, and provide details of the change(s); 2. CSA must meet all the terms of its recognition and comply with all OSHA policies pertaining to this recognition; and 3. CSA must continue to meet the requirements for recognition, including all previously published conditions on CSA’s scope of recognition, in all areas for which it has recognition. VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:43 May 18, 2021 Jkt 253001 Pursuant to the authority in 29 CFR 1910.7, OSHA hereby expands the scope of recognition of CSA as a NRTL, subject to the limitations and conditions specified above. III. Authority and Signature James S. Frederick, Acting Assistant Secretary of Labor for Occupational Safety and Health, 200 Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20210, authorized the preparation of this notice. Accordingly, the agency is issuing this notice pursuant to Section 29 U.S.C. 655(6)(d), Secretary of Labor’s Order No. 8–2020 (85 FR 58393; Sept. 18, 2020), and 29 CFR 1910.7.
