V. Desired Focus of Comments
As BLS pursues the current and
planned engagement and informationgathering activities described above to
support development of a new NLSY
cohort, BLS is also interested in hearing
directly from the public in response to
this FRN. BLS is particularly interested
in comments and recommendations on
the following aspects of the new NLSY
cohort:
• Questionnaire content
• Survey methodology
• Sampling
• Data dissemination
The BLS welcomes comments on any
aspect of the above areas and is
especially interested in comments on:
• Research questions that a new
cohort of the National Longitudinal
Surveys program would address at
different points in the life course.
• The distinctive role of NLSY
cohorts among the range of survey and
non-survey data sources.
• Factors that inform researchers’
choice of data sources.
• Modifications in the coverage of
specific topics compared to previous
NLSY cohorts. This could include any
gaps in the current data, ‘must keep’
elements in the current data, or
elements that are less valuable.
• Uses of data from a new NLSY
cohort that BLS should anticipate and
prioritize (e.g., training of young
researchers, benchmarking specialized
samples, policy analysis, cross-cohort
comparisons, basic research on human
behavior, etc.).
• Design and implementation features
of a new NLSY cohort that users will
find most valuable (e.g., accessible
public use files, frequency of data
collection, availability of biometric
measures, oversamples of specific
populations, linkage possibilities to
selected administrative data, ease of use
of data, alignment with other surveys,
etc.).
• New social and economic trends
that are important to consider in
designing a new NLSY cohort.
• Any other issues BLS should
consider in developing a new NLSY
cohort.
In addition, BLS is open to hearing
from the public about how to improve
its current stakeholder engagement
plans to promote equitable and
diversified feedback as a new NLSY
cohort is developed.
Comments submitted in response to
this notice will be summarized and
made available at https://www.bls.gov/

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Seleda Perryman or Theda Kenney,
Directorate of Standards and Guidance,
OSHA, U.S. Department of Labor,
telephone (202) 693–2222.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Department of Labor, as part of
the continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent (i.e.,
employer) burden, conducts a
preclearance consultation program to
provide the public with an opportunity
to comment on proposed and
continuing information collection
requirements in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This program
ensures that information is in the
desired format, reporting burden (time
and costs) is minimal, collection
instruments are clearly understood, and
OSHA’s estimate of the information
collection burden is accurate. The
Occupational Safety and Health Act of
1970 (OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et seq.)
authorizes information collection by
employers as necessary or appropriate
for enforcement of the OSH Act or for
developing information regarding the
causes and prevention of occupational
injuries, illnesses, and accidents (29
U.S.C. 657). The OSH Act also requires
that OSHA obtain such information
with a minimum burden upon
employers, especially those operating
small businesses, and to reduce to the
maximum extent feasible unnecessary
duplication of efforts in obtaining said
information (29 U.S.C. 657).
The OSPP allows OSHA to enter into
an extended, voluntary, cooperative
relationship with groups of employers,
employees, and representatives
(sometimes including other
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:50 Mar 04, 2022
Jkt 256001
stakeholders, and sometimes involving
only one employer) to encourage, assist,
and recognize their efforts to eliminate
serious hazards and to achieve a high
level of worker safety and health that
goes beyond what historically has been
achieved from traditional enforcement
methods. Each OSHA Strategic
Partnership (OSP) determines what
information will be needed, determining
the best collection method, and
clarifying how the information will be
used. At a minimum, each OSP must
identify baseline injury and illness data
corresponding to all summary line items
on the OSHA 300 logs and must track
changes at either the worksite level or
participant-aggregate level. An OSP may
also include other measures of success,
such as training activity, selfinspections, and/or workers’
compensation data. In this regard, the
information collection requirements for
the OSPP are used by the agency to
gauge the effectiveness of programs,
identify needed improvements, and
ensure that resources are being used
effectively and appropriately.
II. Special Issues for Comment
OSHA has a particular interest in
comments on the following issues:
• Whether the proposed information
collection requirements are necessary
for the proper performance of the
agency’s functions, including whether
the information is useful;
• the accuracy of OSHA’s estimate of
the burden (time and costs) of the
information collection requirements,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• the quality, utility, and clarity of
the information collected; and
• Ways to minimize the burden on
employers who must comply; for
example, by using automated or other
technological information collection
and transmission techniques.
III. Proposed Actions
The agency is requesting an
adjustment increase of 4,466 burden
hours of the previous approval from
14,014 to 18,480 hours. The increase in
burden is a result of increase in the
number of employers and participants.

UL LLC: Grant of Expansion of
Recognition and Modification to the
NRTL Program’s List of Appropriate
Test Standards
Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA), Labor.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
In this notice, OSHA
announces the final decision to expand
the scope of recognition for UL LLC as
a Nationally Recognized Testing
Laboratory (NRTL). Additionally, OSHA
announces the final decision to add two
test standards to the NRTL Program’s
list of appropriate test standards.
DATES: The expansion of the scope of
recognition becomes effective on March
7, 2022.

SUMMARY:
Health Administration, U.S. Department
of Labor, phone: (202) 693–2110 or
email: robinson.kevin@dol.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Notice of Final Decision
OSHA hereby gives notice of the
expansion of the scope of recognition of
UL LLC (UL) as a NRTL. UL’s expansion
covers the addition of eleven test
standards to the NRTL scope of
recognition, two of which OSHA will
add to the NRTL Program’s List of
Appropriate Test Standards.
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
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 of the
products.
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 UL, which details
the NRTL’s scope of recognition. These
pages are available from the OSHA
website at https://www.osha.gov/dts/
otpca/nrtl/.
UL submitted an application, dated
May 23, 2019, to expand their
recognition as a NRTL to include twelve
additional test standards (OSHA–2009–
12737
0025–0038). This application was
amended to remove one standard from
the original request (OSHA–2009–0025–
0039). The expansion would add eleven
additional test standards to UL’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.
OSHA published the preliminary
notice announcing UL’s expansion
application in the Federal Register on
January 26, 2022 (87 FR 4053). The
agency requested comments by February
10, 2022, but it received no comments
in response to this notice. OSHA is now
proceeding with this final notice to
grant expansion of UL’s scope of
recognition and modification to the
NRTL Program’s List of Appropriate
Test Standards.
To obtain or review copies of all
public documents pertaining to UL’s
application, go to https://
www.regulations.gov or contact the
Docket Office, Occupational Safety and
Health Administration, U.S. Department
of Labor. Docket No. OSHA–2009–0025
contains all materials in the record
concerning UL’s recognition. Please
note: Due to the COVID–19 pandemic,
the Docket Office is closed to the public
at this time but can be contacted at (202)
693–2350 (TTY ((877) 889–5627).
II. Final Decision and Order
OSHA staff examined UL’s expansion
application, its capability to meet the
requirements of the test standards, and
other pertinent information. Based on
its review of this evidence, OSHA finds
that UL meets the requirements of 29
CFR 1910.7 for expansion of its
recognition, subject to the limitations
and conditions listed in this notice.
OSHA, therefore, is proceeding with
this final notice to grant UL’s scope of
recognition. OSHA limits the expansion
of UL’s recognition to testing and
certification of products for
demonstration of conformance to the
test standards listed below in Table 1.
