ACTION: Notice. AGENCY: In this notice, OSHA announces the final decision to expand the scope of recognition for SGS North America, Inc., as a Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL). DATES: The expansion of the scope of recognition becomes effective on January 22, 2025. 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, phone: (202) 693–2300 or email: robinson.kevin@dol.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SUMMARY: I. Notice of Final Decision OSHA hereby gives notice of the expansion of the scope of recognition of SGS North America, Inc. (SGS) as a NRTL. SGS’s expansion covers the addition of six test sites and 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 PO 00000 Frm 00056 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 7709 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 SGS, which details the NRTL’s scope of recognition. These pages are available from the OSHA website at https://www.osha.gov/ dts/otpca/nrtl/. SGS submitted five applications to OSHA to expand recognition as a NRTL. The first application was received on March 20, 2022 (OSHA–2006–0040– 0084), requesting the addition of one test site in Brussels, Belgium. This application was revised on January 9, 2024 (OSHA–2006–0040–0089) to update the address on the original application. The second expansion application was received on March 29, 2022 (OSHA–2006–0040–0085), requesting the addition of one test site in Yokohama, Japan. This application was revised on May 9, 2024 (OSHA– 2006–0040–0091) requesting an additional test standard in addition to the Yokohama site. The third expansion application was received on March 30, 2022 (OSHA–2006–0040–0086), requesting the addition of one test site in Munich, Germany. This application was revised on January 9, 2024 (OSHA– 2006–0040–0090) to update the address on the application to Puchheim, Germany. The fourth (OSHA–2006– 0040–0087) and fifth (OSHA–2006– 0040–0088) applications were received on April 1, 2022, requesting the addition of two test sites in New Taipei E:\FR\FM\22JAN1.SGM 22JAN1
