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 the 

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 CSA, which details the 

NRTL’s scope of recognition. These 

pages are available from the OSHA 

website at http://www.osha.gov/dts/ 

otpca/nrtl/index.html. 

CSA currently has seven facilities 

(sites) recognized by OSHA for product 

testing and certification. The 

headquarters location is Canadian 

Standards Association, 178 Rexdale 

Boulevard, Etobicoke, Ontario, M9W 

1R3, Canada. A complete list of CSA’s 

scope of recognition is available at 

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

csa.html. 

II. General Background on the 

Application 

CSA submitted an application, dated 

July 17, 2019 (OSHA–2006–0042–0018), 

to expand their recognition to include 

four additional test standards. OSHA 

staff performed detailed analysis of the 

application packet and reviewed other 

pertinent information. OSHA did not 

perform any on-site reviews in relation 

to this application. 

Table 1 below lists the appropriate 

test standards found in CSA’s 

application for expansion for testing and 

certification of products under the 

NRTL Program.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Notice of the Application for 

Expansion 

OSHA is providing notice that CSA 

Group Testing & Certification Inc. (CSA) 

is applying for expansion of their 

current recognition as a NRTL. CSA 

requests the addition of twenty-two test 

standards 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 

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 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 the 

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 CSA, which details the 

NRTL’s scope of recognition. These 

pages are available from the OSHA 

website at http://www.osha.gov/dts/ 

otpca/nrtl/index.html. 

CSA currently has seven facilities 

(sites) recognized by OSHA for product 

testing and certification. The 

headquarters location is Canadian 

Standards Association, 178 Rexdale 

Boulevard, Etobicoke, Ontario, M9W 

1R3, Canada. A complete list of CSA’s 

scope of recognition is available at 

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

csa.html. 

II. General Background on the 

Application 

CSA submitted an application, dated 

January 24, 2018 (OSHA–2006–0042– 

0019), to expand their recognition to 

include twenty-two additional test 

standards. OSHA staff performed 

detailed analysis of the application 

packet and reviewed other pertinent 

information. OSHA did not perform any 

on-site reviews in relation to this 

application.

* Represents the standards that OSHA proposes to add to the NRTL Program’s List of Appropriate Test Standards. 

III. Proposal To Add New Test 

Standards to the NRTL Program’s List 

of Appropriate Test Standards 

Periodically, OSHA will propose to 

add new test standards to the NRTL list 

of appropriate test standards following 

an evaluation of the test standard 

document. To qualify as an appropriate 

test standard, the agency evaluates the 

document to: (1) Verify it represents a 

product category for which OSHA 

requires certification by a NRTL; (2) 

verify the document represents an end 

product and not a component; and (3) 

verify the document defines safety test 

specifications (not installation or 

operational performance specifications). 

OSHA becomes aware of new test 

standards through various avenues. For 

example, OSHA may become aware of 

new test standards by: (1) Monitoring 

notifications issued by certain 

Standards Development Organizations; 

(2) reviewing applications by NRTLs or 

applicants seeking recognition to 

include new test standards in their 

scopes of recognition; and (3) obtaining 

notification from manufacturers, 

manufacturing organizations, 

government agencies, or other parties. 

OSHA may determine to include a new 

test standard in the list, for example, if 

the test standard is for a particular type 

of product that another test standard 

also covers or it covers a type of product 

that no standard previously covered. 

In this notice, OSHA proposes 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 preliminarily 

determined that these test standards are 

appropriate test standards and proposes 

to include them in the NRTL Program’s 

List of Appropriate Test Standards. 

OSHA seeks public comment on this 

preliminary determination.

IV. Preliminary Findings on the 

Application 

CSA submitted an acceptable 

application for expansion of the scope 

of recognition. OSHA’s review of the 

application file and pertinent 

documentation indicates that CSA can 

meet the requirements prescribed by 29 

CFR 1910.7 for expanding their 

recognition to include the addition of 

the twenty-two test standards for NRTL 

testing and certification listed above. 

This preliminary finding does not 

11008 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 34 / Tuesday, February 23, 2021 / Notices 

constitute an interim or temporary 

approval of CSA’s application. 

OSHA welcomes public comment as 

to whether CSA meets the requirements 

of 29 CFR 1910.7 for expansion of the 

recognition as a NRTL. OSHA 

additionally welcomes comments on the 

proposal to add four additional test 

standards to the NRTL Program’s list of 

appropriate test standards. 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. Commenters 

must submit the written request for an 

extension by the due date for comments. 

OSHA will limit any extension to 10 

days unless the requester justifies a 

longer period. OSHA may deny a 

request for an extension if the request 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. These materials also are 

available online at http://

www.regulations.gov under Docket No. 

OSHA–2006–0042. 

OSHA 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 for Occupational Safety and 

Health as to whether to grant CSA’s 

application for expansion of the scope 

of recognition. The Assistant Secretary 

will make the final decision on granting 

the application. In making this decision, 

the Assistant Secretary may undertake 

other proceedings prescribed in 

Appendix A to 29 CFR 1910.7. 

OSHA will publish a public notice of 

the final decision in the Federal 

Register.
