III. Preliminary Finding on the 

Applications 

TUVRNA submitted two acceptable 

applications 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 fourteen test standards for NRTL 

testing and certification. This 

preliminary finding does not constitute 

an interim or temporary approval of 

TUVRNA’s applications. 

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, listed in ADDRESSES. These 

materials also are available online at

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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

OSHA recognition of a NRTL signifies 

that the organization meets the 

requirements in Section 1910.7 of Title 

29, Code of Federal Regulations (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. OSHA 

maintains an informational web page for 

each NRTL that details the scope of 

recognition available at https://

www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/

index.html. 

OSHA processes applications by a 

NRTL for renewal of recognition 

following requirements in Appendix A 

to 29 CFR 1910.7. OSHA conducts 

renewals in accordance with the 

procedures in 29 CFR 1910.7, Appendix 

A, paragraph II.C. In accordance with 

these procedures, NRTLs submit a 

renewal request to OSHA, not less than 

nine months or no more than one year, 

before the expiration date of the current 

recognition. The submission includes a 

request for renewal and any additional 

information the NRTL wishes to submit 

to demonstrate continued compliance 

with the terms of the NRTL recognition 

and 29 CFR 1910.7. If OSHA has not 

conducted an on-site assessment of the 

NRTL’s headquarters and key sites 

within the past 18 to 24 months, it will 

schedule the necessary on-site 

assessments prior to the expiration date 

of the NRTL’s recognition. Upon review 

of the submitted material and, as 

necessary, the successful completion of 

the on-site assessment, OSHA 

announces the preliminary decision to 

grant or deny renewal in the Federal 

Register and solicit comments from the 

public. OSHA then publishes a final 

Federal Register notice responding to 

any comments and renewing the NRTL’s 

recognition for a period of five years, or 

denying the renewal of recognition. 

The current address of the PTL 

facility recognized by OSHA and 

included as part of the renewal request 

is: SolarPTL, 1107 West Fairmont 

Avenue, Tempe, Arizona 85252. 

PTL initially received OSHA 

recognition as a NRTL in a Federal 

Register notice (76 FR 16452, March 23, 

2011). PTL was previously recognized 

by OSHA as TUV Rheinland PTL, 

whose name was changed following a 

sale to SolarPTL in October 2018. PTL 

submitted a timely request for renewal, 

dated April 2, 2015 (OSHA–2010–0013), 

and retains their recognition pending 

OSHA’s final decision in this renewal 

process. OSHA assessments of PTL 

during this recognition period (February 

18–22, 2016; November 14–15, 2017; 

and January 30–31, 2019) identified 

nonconformities with 29 CFR 1910.7. 

Although PTL worked to resolve these 

nonconformities, it took several years 

for PTL to demonstrate compliance with 

29 CFR 1910.7. 

As a result of the nonconformities 

identified during OSHA’s assessments 

of PTL during this recognition period, 

PTL must abide by the conditions noted 

below in addition to those conditions 

already required by 29 CFR 1910.7: 

1. PTL must inform OSHA as soon as 

possible, in writing, of any change of 

ownership, facilities, or key 

personnel, and of any major change in 

their operations as a NRTL, and provide 

details of the change(s); 

2. PTL must agree to increased OSHA 

oversight of their operations including: 

(a) More frequent on-site assessments 

of PTL facilities; and 

(b) PTL shall continue to provide 

OSHA with written notification of any 

new or revised NRTL certificates that 

are issued on or after December 14, 

2017, within 7 days of issuing the 

certification. This notification shall 

include: 

(a) Name and address of the applicant; 

(b) Model number(s) for the certified 

products; 

(c) PTL Certification number; 

(d) PTL Project number; 

(e) Name of PTL staff involved with 

the project; and 

(f) Location where the product 

evaluation and testing took place. 

3. Upon request, PTL must provide 

copies of the test data, certification 

report or other related information for 

new or revised certifications to OSHA. 

II. Notice of Preliminary Findings 

OSHA is providing notice that PTL is 

applying for renewal of recognition as a 

NRTL. This renewal covers PTL’s 

existing NRTL scope of recognition. 

OSHA evaluated PTL’s application for 

renewal and preliminarily determined 

that PTL can continue to meet the 

requirements prescribed by 29 CFR 

1910.7 for recognition. This information 

includes OSHA’s audits of PTL’s 

recognized NRTL site during this 

recognition period, and the satisfactory 

resolution of nonconformities with the 

requirements of 29 CFR 1910.7. This 

preliminary finding does not constitute 

an interim or temporary approval of the 

request. 

OSHA welcomes public comment as 

to whether PTL meets the requirements 

of 29 CFR 1910.7 for renewal of their 

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. OSHA must 

receive the written request for an 

extension by the due date for comments. 

OSHA will limit any extension to 30 

days unless the requester justifies a 

longer period. OSHA may deny a 

request for an extension if it is not 

adequately justified. To obtain or review 

copies of the publicly available 

information in PTL’s application and

comments, contact the Docket Office, at 

the above address; these materials also 

are available online at https://

www.regulations.gov under Docket No. 

OSHA–2010–0013. 

The NRTL Program staff will review 

all comments to the docket submitted in 

a timely manner and, after addressing 

the issues raised by these comments, 

will make a recommendation to the 

Assistant Secretary on whether to grant 

PTL’s application for renewal. The 

Assistant Secretary will make the final 

decision on granting the application 

and, in making this decision, may 

undertake other proceedings prescribed 

in Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7. 

OSHA will publish a public notice of 

this final decision in the Federal 

Register.

support from the U.S. Copyright Office 

and from other Library offices as 

necessary. The goal of the committee 

will be to expand and enhance 

communication with external 

stakeholders on IT modernization of 

Copyright Office systems and to provide 

an ongoing public forum for sharing 

information and answering questions 

related to this initiative. 

II. Public Stakeholder Committee 

Subjects of Discussion 

Members of the Copyright Public 

Modernization Committee will provide 

feedback to the Library on the 

technology-related aspects of the 

Copyright Office’s modernization 

initiative, including both Copyright 

Office IT systems and broader Library IT 

systems that interface with and/or 

support Copyright Office operations. 

III. Public Stakeholder Committee 

Application Process
