SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Notice of the Application for 

Expansion 

The Occupational Safety and Health 

Administration is providing notice that 

MET Laboratories, Inc. (MET), is 

applying for expansion of its current 

recognition as a NRTL. MET requests 

the addition of one test standard to its 

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 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 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 a 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 MET, 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. 

MET currently has one facility (site) 

recognized by OSHA for product testing 

and certification, with its headquarters 

located at: MET Laboratories, Inc., 914 

West Patapsco Avenue, Baltimore, 

Maryland 21230. A complete list of 

MET’s scope of recognition is available 

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

met.html. 

II. General Background on the 

Application 

MET submitted an application, dated 

January 29, 2016 (OSHA–2006–0028– 

0046), to expand its recognition to 

include one additional test standard. 

OSHA staff performed a 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 standard found in MET’s 

application for expansion for testing and 

certification of products under the 

NRTL Program. 

TABLE 1—PROPOSED APPROPRIATE

TEST STANDARD FOR INCLUSION IN

MET’S NRTL SCOPE OF RECOGNITION

Test standard Test standard title 

UL 1598C * ..... Standard for Light Emitting Diode 

(LED) Retrofit Luminaire Conversion Kits. 

* Represents the standard that OSHA proposes to 

add to the NRTL Program’s List of Appropriate Test 

Standards. 

III. Proposal To Add New Test 

Standard 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 

one new test standard to the NRTL 

Program’s List of Appropriate Test 

Standards. Table 2, below, lists the test 

standard that is new to the NRTL 

Program. OSHA preliminarily 

determined that this test standard is an 

appropriate test standard and proposes 

to include it in the NRTL Program’s List 

of Appropriate Test Standards. OSHA 

seeks public comment on this 

preliminary determination. 

TABLE 2—TEST STANDARD OSHA IS

PROPOSING TO ADD TO THE NRTL 

PROGRAM’S LIST OF APPROPRIATE

TEST STANDARDS

Test standard Test standard title 

UL 1598C * ..... Standard for Light Emitting Diode 

(LED) Retrofit Luminaire Conversion Kits. 

III. Preliminary Findings on the 

Application 

MET submitted an acceptable 

application for expansion of its scope of 

recognition. OSHA’s review of the 

application file, and pertinent 

documentation, indicate that MET can 

meet the requirements prescribed by 29 

CFR 1910.7 for expanding its 

recognition to include the addition of 

this one test standard for NRTL testing 

and certification listed in Table 2. This 

preliminary finding does not constitute 

an interim or temporary approval of 

MET’s application. 

OSHA welcomes public comment as 

to whether MET meets the requirements 

of 29 CFR 1910.7 for expansion of its 

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. 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, at the above address. 

These materials also are available online 

at http://www.regulations.gov under 

Docket No. OSHA–2006–0028. 

OSHA staff will review all comments 

to the docket submitted in a timely 

manner and, after addressing the issues 


jstallworth on DSKBBY8HB2PROD with NOTICES
35028 Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 142 / Tuesday, July 24, 2018 / Notices 

raised by these comments, will make a 

recommendation to the Assistant 

Secretary for Occupational Safety and 

Health whether to grant MET’s 

application for expansion of its 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 

its final decision in the Federal 

Register.
