Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 142 / Tuesday, July 24, 2018 / Notices 35023 

I. Notice of the Application for 

Expansion 

The Occupational Safety and Health 

Administration is providing notice that 

TUV SUD America, Inc. (TUVAM), is 

applying for expansion of its current 

recognition as a NRTL. TUVAM 

requests the addition of two test 

standards 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 of 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 its 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 six facilities 

(sites) recognized by OSHA for product 

testing and certification, with its 

headquarters located at: TUV SUD 

America, Inc., 10 Technology Drive, 

Peabody, MA 01960. 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 June 12, 2017 (OSHA–2007– 

0043–0023), to expand its recognition to 

include two additional test standards. 

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 standards found in TUVAM’s 

application for expansion for testing and 

certification of products under the 

NRTL Program. 

TABLE 1—PROPOSED LIST OF APPROPRIATE TEST STANDARDS FOR INCLUSION IN TUVAM’S NRTL 

[Scope of Recognition] 

Test standard Test standard title 

UL 924 ............ Standard for Emergency Lighting 

and Power Equipment. 

UL 2108 .......... Standard for Low Voltage Lighting 

Systems. 

III. Preliminary Findings on the 

Application 

TUVAM submitted an acceptable 

application for expansion of its scope of 

recognition. OSHA’s review of the 

application file, and pertinent 

documentation, indicates that TUVAM 

can meet the requirements prescribed by 

29 CFR 1910.7 for expanding its 

recognition to include the addition of 

these two 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 welcomes public comment as 

to whether TUVAM 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–2007–0043. 

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 whether to grant TUVAM’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.

Secretary of Labor for Occupational 

Safety and Health, authorized the
