Federal Register / Vol. 90, No. 14 / Thursday, January 23, 2025 / Notices 8055 

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 DEKRA, 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. 

DEKRA submitted an application to 

OSHA for expansion of the NRTL scope 

of recognition on January 5, 2023 

(OSHA–2019–0009–0013), requesting 

the addition of six recognized testing 

standards. OSHA staff performed a 

detailed analysis of the application 

packet and reviewed other pertinent 

information. OSHA did not perform an 

on-site review associated with this 

application. OSHA staff has 

preliminarily determined that OSHA 

should grant the application. 

OSHA published a Federal Register 

notice announcing DEKRA’s application 

and soliciting public comment on 

December 30, 2024 (89 FR 106601). The 

agency requested comments by January 

14, 2025, however no comments were 

received in response to this notice. 

OSHA is now proceeding with the 

expansion of DEKRA’s NRTL scope of 

recognition. 

To obtain or review copies of all 

public documents pertaining to the 

DEKRA expansion application, go to 

www.regulations/gov or contact the 

Docket Office at (202) 693–2350 (TTY 

(877) 889–5627. Docket No. OSHA– 

2019–0009 contains all materials in the 

record containing DEKRA’s recognition. 

II. Final Decision and Order 

OSHA staff examined DEKRA’s 

expansion application and examined 

other pertinent information. Based on 

review of this evidence, OSHA finds 

that DEKRA meets the requirements of 

29 CFR 1910.7 for expansion of 

recognition, subject to the specified 

limitations and conditions. OSHA, 

therefore, is proceeding with this final 

notice to grant expansion of DEKRA’s 

scope of recognition. OSHA limits the 

expansion of DEKRA’s recognition to 

testing and certification of products for 

demonstration of compliance to the test 

standards listed below in Table 1. 

TABLE 1—LIST OF APPROPRIATE TEST STANDARDS FOR INCLUSION IN DEKRA’S NRTL SCOPE OF RECOGNITION

* OSHA notes that the title to this standard in the table is taken from OSHA’s List of Appropriate Test Standards (see https://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/list-standards). This title is not the same as the title currently used by the Standards Developing 

Organization that issued the test standard. OSHA intends to update the List of Appropriate Test Standards to reflect the currently used title in the 

near future. 

A. Conditions 

In addition to those conditions 

already required by 29 CFR 1910.7, 

DEKRA also must abide by the 

following conditions of the recognition: 

1. DEKRA must inform OSHA as soon 

as possible, in writing, of any change of 

ownership, facilities, or key personnel, 

and of any major change in its 

operations as a NRTL, and provide 

details of the change(s); 

2. DEKRA must meet all the terms of 

its recognition and comply with all 

OSHA policies pertaining to this 

recognition; and 

3. DEKRA must continue to meet the 

requirements for recognition, including 

all previously published conditions on 

DEKRA’s scope of recognition, in all 

areas for which it has recognition. 

Pursuant to the authority in 29 CFR 

1910.7, OSHA hereby expands the scope 

of recognition of DEKRA as a NRTL, 

subject to the limitations and conditions 

specified above.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title of Collection: Grantee Reporting 

Requirements for Partnerships for 

Research and Education in Materials 

(PREM). 

OMB Number: 3145–0232. 

Expiration Date of Approval: June 30, 

2025. 

Type of Request: Intent to seek 

approval to renew information 

collection. 

Overview of this Information 

Collection: The Partnerships for 

Research and Education in Materials 

(PREM) aims to enhance broadening 

participation of underserved groups in 

materials research and education by 

stimulating the development of formal, 

long-term, collaborative research and 

education relationships between 

minority-serving colleges and 

universities and centers, institutes and 

facilities supported by the NSF Division 

of Materials Research (DMR). With this 

collaborative model PREMs build 

intellectual and physical infrastructure 

within and between disciplines, 

weaving together knowledge creation, 

knowledge integration, and knowledge 

transfer. PREMs conduct world-class 

research through partnerships of 

academic institutions, national 

laboratories, industrial organizations, 

and/or other public/private entities. 

New knowledge thus created is 

meaningfully linked to society, with an 

emphasis on enhancing broadening 

participation and workforce 

development. 

PREMs enable and foster excellent 

education, integrate research and 

education, and create bonds between 

learning and inquiry so that discovery 

and creativity more fully support the 

learning process. PREMs capitalize on 

broadening participation of underserved 

communities through participation and 

collaboration in center activities and 

demonstrate leadership in the 

involvement of groups 

underrepresented in science and 

engineering. 

PREMs will be required to submit 

annual reports on progress and plans, 

which will be used as a basis for 

performance review and determining 

the level of continued funding. To 

support this review and the 

management of the award PREMs will 

be required to develop a set of 

management and performance 

indicators for submission annually to 

NSF via the Research Performance 

Project Reporting module in 

Research.gov. These indicators are both 

quantitative and descriptive and may 

include, for example, the characteristics 

of personnel and students; sources of 

financial support and in-kind support; 

expenditures by operational component; 

research activities; education activities; 

patents, licenses; publications; degrees 

granted to students involved in PREM 

activities; descriptions of significant 

advances and other outcomes of the 

PREM effort. 

Each PREM’s annual report will 

include the following categories of 

activities: (1) research, (2) education (3) 

outreach, (4) partnerships, (5) pathway 

for enhancing broadening participation, 

(6) management, and (7) budget reports. 

For each of the categories the report 

will describe overall objectives for the 

year, achievements and 

accomplishments, potential problems 

the PREM has encountered in making 

progress towards goals, anticipated 

problems in the following year, and 

specific outputs and outcomes. 

PREMs are required to file a final 

report through the RPPR and external 

technical assistance contractor. Final 

reports contain similar information and 

metrics as annual reports but are 

retrospective. 

Use of the Information: NSF will use 

the information to continue funding of 

PREMs, and to evaluate the progress of 

the program. 

Estimate of Burden: 70 hours per 

PREM for 38 PREMs for a total of 2,660 

hours. 

Respondents: Non-profit institutions. 

Estimated Number of Responses per 

Report: One from each of the fifteen 

PREMs. 

Comments: Comments are invited on 

(a) whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

Agency, including whether the 

information shall have practical utility; 

(b) the accuracy of the Agency’s 

estimate of the burden of the proposed 

collection of information; (c) ways to 

enhance the quality, utility, and clarity 

of the information on respondents, 

including through the use of automated 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology; and (d) ways to 

minimize the burden of the collection of 

information on those who are to 

respond, including through the use of 

appropriate automated, electronic, 

mechanical, or other technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology.
