Download as PDF 65673 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 155 / Monday, August 12, 2024 / Notices emphasized that funding should increase for research on factors associated with better young adult outcomes. In 2021, Congress requested that research be conducted on improving employment outcomes for this population. To better understand the employment experiences and outcomes of young adults on the autism spectrum, this study will conduct two data collection activities. First, the study team will conduct a large-scale survey of autistic young adults ages 16 to 28, which will be one of the first large-scale data collections of employment outcomes for this population (Musse et al., 2022). Second, the study team will conduct follow-up qualitative telephone or web interviews with a subset of survey respondents. This study will provide insightful data on the employment experiences of young adults on the autism spectrum, which policymakers and the autism community can use to inform program and policy changes that support the well-being of autistic people. This information collection is subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA). A Federal agency generally cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and the public is generally not required to respond to an information collection, unless the OMB approves it and displays a currently valid OMB Control Number. In addition, notwithstanding any other provisions of law, no person shall generally be subject to penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information that does not display a valid OMB Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL seeks PRA authorization for this information collection for three (3) years. OMB authorization for an Information Collection Review cannot be for more than three (3) years without renewal. II. Desired Focus of Comments DOL is soliciting comments concerning the proposed information collection related to Research Support Services for Employment of Young Adults on the Autism Spectrum [REYAAS] Project. DOL is particularly interested in comments that: • Evaluate whether the collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Agency, including whether the information has practical utility; • Evaluate the accuracy of DOL’s estimate of the burden related to the information collection, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used in the estimate; • Suggest methods to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and • Minimize the burden of the information collection on those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses. Background documents related to this information collection request are available at https://regulations.gov and at DOL located at 200 Constitution Ave. NW, Room S–5315, Washington, DC 20210.

ACTION: Notice. AGENCY: In this notice, OSHA announces the final decision to expand the scope of recognition for TUV SUD America, Inc. (TUVAM) as a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL). DATES: The expansion of the scope of recognition becomes effective on August 12, 2024. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Information regarding this notice is available from the following sources: Press inquiries: Contact Mr. Frank Meilinger, Director, OSHA Office of Communications, U.S. Department of Labor; telephone: (202) 693–1999; email: meilinger.francis2@dol.gov. General and technical information: Contact Mr. Kevin Robinson, Director, Office of Technical Programs and Coordination Activities, Directorate of Technical Support and Emergency Management, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, U.S. Department of Labor; telephone: (202) 693–1911; email: robinson.kevin@dol.gov. OSHA’s web page includes information about the NRTL Program (see https:// www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/ index.html). SUMMARY: SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Notice of Final Decision OSHA hereby gives notice of the expansion of the scope of recognition for TUV SUD America Inc. (TUVAM). TUVAM’s expansion covers the addition of eighteen test standards to the NRTL scope of recognition. OSHA recognition of a NRTL signifies that the organization meets the requirements specified in 29 CFR PO 00000 Frm 00094 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 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. Each NRTL’s scope of recognition includes (1) the type of products the NRTL may test, with each type specified by its 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 an application by a NRTL for initial recognition and for an expansion or renewal of this recognition, following requirements in Appendix A, 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 its 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 TUVAM, which details the NRTL’s scope of recognition. These pages are available from the OSHA website at: https:// www.osha.gov/nationally-recognizedtesting-laboratory-program. TUVAM submitted an application to OSHA for expansion of the NRTL scope of recognition on September 30, 2021 (OSHA–2007–0043–0059), requesting the expansion of the NRTL scope of recognition to include eighteen additional test standards. OSHA did not perform any on-site reviews with respect to this application. OSHA published the preliminary notice announcing TUVAM’s expansion application in the Federal Register on May 28, 2024 (89 FR 46162). The agency requested comments by June 12, 2024, however no comments were received in response to this notice. To review copies of all public documents pertaining to TUVAM’s application, go to https:// www.regulations.gov or contact the Docket Office, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, U.S. Department of Labor at (202) 693–2350. Docket No. OSHA–2007–0043 contains all materials in the record concerning TUVAM’s recognition. All submissions, including copyrighted material, are available for inspection through the OSHA Docket E:\FR\FM\12AUN1.SGM 12AUN1
