Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 214 / Tuesday, November 7, 2023 / Notices 76861 

certification 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: http://www.osha.gov/ 

dts/otpca/nrtl/index.html. 

TUVAM currently has sixteen 

facilities (sites) recognized by OSHA for 

product testing and certification, with 

its headquarters located at: TUV SUD 

America, Inc., 401 Edgewater Place, 

Suite 500, Wakefield, MA 01880. A 

complete list of TUVAM’s scope of 

recognition (including sites recognized 

by OSHA) is available at: https://

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

tuvam.html. 

II. General Background on the 

Application 

TUVAM submitted an application, 

dated November 22, 2021 (OSHA–2007– 

0043–0049), to expand their recognition 

to include three 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 TUVAM’s 

application for expansion for testing and 

certification of products under the 

NRTL Program.

UL 2271 ......... Batteries for Use in Light 

Electric Vehicle (LEV) Applications. 

III. Preliminary Findings on the 

Application 

TUVAM submitted an acceptable 

application for expansion of the NRTL 

scope of recognition. OSHA’s review of 

the application file, and pertinent 

documentation, indicate that TUVAM 

can meet the requirements prescribed by 

29 CFR 1910.7 for expanding their 

recognition to include the addition of 

these three test standards for NRTL 

testing and certification listed above. 

This preliminary finding does not 

constitute an interim or temporary 

approval of TUVAM’s application. 

OSHA seeks comment on this 

preliminary determination. 

IV. Public Participation 

OSHA welcomes public comment as 

to whether TUVAM 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 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. These materials 

also are generally available online at 

https://www.regulations.gov under 

Docket No. OSHA–2007–0043 (for 

further information, see the ‘‘Docket’’ 

heading in the section of this notice 

titled ADDRESSES). 

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 

TUVAM’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.
