Federal Register / Vol. 63, No. 132 / Friday, July 10, 1998 / Notices 37417

Taipei, Taiwan facilities and personnel,

when applicable to the testing and

evaluation of products under the test

standards listed below. These

limitations are repeated herein.

In its request for expansion, ENT

included a specific reference to an

International Electrotechnical

Commission (IEC) standard for many of

the test standards listed below. Each

specific reference is apparently

intended to show the IEC standard

equivalent to the U.S. national test

standard requested. While there may be

some equivalence, this expansion of

recognition does not apply to or cover

any of the IEC standards referenced in

ENT’s current request for expansion.

This clarification is provided since it

may not be readily apparent to some

reviewers of the public record

concerning this notice.

Final Decision and Order

Based upon a preponderance of the

evidence resulting from an examination

of the request for expansion, the

supporting documentation, and the

NRTL Program staff recommendation,

dated February 17, 1998, OSHA finds

that ENT has met the requirements of 29

CFR 1910.7 for expansion of its present

recognition to test and certify certain

additional equipment or materials.

Pursuant to the authority in 29 CFR

1910.7, ENT’s recognition is hereby

expanded to include the 11 test

standards listed below, subject to the

limitations and condition. This

recognition is limited to equipment or

materials that, under 29 CFR Part 1910,

require testing, listing, labeling,

approval, acceptance, or certification, by

a Nationally Recognized Testing

Laboratory. This recognition is further

limited to the use of the following test

standards for the testing and

certification of equipment or materials

included within the scope of these

standards.

ENT asserts by its application that the

following standards pertain to

equipment or materials that will be used

in environments under OSHA’s

jurisdiction, and OSHA has determined

the standards are appropriate within the

meaning of 29 CFR 1910.7(c):

ANSI/UL 130 Electric Heating Pads

ANSI/UL 858 Household Electric

Ranges

ANSI/UL 969 Marking and Labeling

Taiwan Facility

The following limitations apply to the

recognition of the Taiwan facility:

a. The Taiwan facility shall be limited

to carrying out minor mechanical and

electrical testing of instruments and

small appliances.

b. Performance of inspections shall be

limited to Entela personnel.

Conditions

Entela, Inc. must also abide by the

following conditions of the recognition,

in addition to those already required by

29 CFR 1910.7:

OSHA shall be allowed access to

ENT’s facility and records for purposes

of ascertaining continuing compliance

with the terms of its recognition and to

investigate as OSHA deems necessary;

If ENT has reason to doubt the

efficacy of any test standard it is using

under this program, it shall promptly

inform the test standard developing

organization of this fact and provide

that organization with appropriate

relevant information upon which its

concerns are based;

ENT shall not engage in or permit

others to engage in any

misrepresentation of the scope or

conditions of its recognition. As part of

this condition, ENT agrees that it will

allow no representation that it is either

a recognized or an accredited Nationally

Recognized Testing Laboratory (NRTL)

without clearly indicating the specific

equipment or material to which this

recognition is tied, or that its

recognition is limited to certain

products;

ENT shall inform OSHA as soon as

possible, in writing, of any change of

ownership or key personnel, including

details;

ENT will continue to meet the

requirements for recognition in all areas

where it has been recognized; and

ENT will always cooperate with

OSHA to assure compliance with the

spirit as well as the letter of its

recognition and 29 CFR 1910.7.

Signed at Washington, D.C. this 1st day of

July 1998.
