SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
OSHA recognizes organizations that provide product-safety testing
and certification services to manufacturers. These organizations
perform testing and certification, for purposes of the NRTL Program, to
U.S. consensus-based product-safety test standards. OSHA does not
develop or issue these test standards, but generally relies on U.S.
standards-development organizations (SDOs) accredited by the American
National Standards Institute (ANSI). The products covered by the NRTL
Program consist of those items for which OSHA safety standards require
"certification" by an NRTL. The requirements affect electrical
products and 38 other types of products.
OSHA recognition of an organization as an NRTL signifies that the
organization meets the legal requirements in OSHA regulations at 29 CFR
1910.7 and the NRTL Program policies in CPL 1-0.3, "NRTL Program
Policies, Procedures, and Guidelines," December 2, 1999
("Directive"). Recognition is an acknowledgement by OSHA that the
NRTL has the capabilities to perform independent safety testing and
certification of the specific products covered within the NRTL's scope
of recognition. Recognition of an NRTL by OSHA also allows employers to
use products certified by that NRTL to meet those OSHA standards that
require product testing and certification (29 CFR 1910.7(a)).
An NRTL's scope of recognition consists, in part, of specific test
standard(s) approved by OSHA for use by the NRTL. Pursuant to OSHA
regulations, the NRTL must first request to have a test standard
included in its scope of recognition. OSHA will grant the NRTL's
request only if the NRTL has the capability to test and examine
equipment \1\ and materials for workplace safety purposes and to
determine conformance with the test standard for each relevant item of
equipment or material that it lists, labels, or accepts (29 CFR
1910.7(b)(1)). Capability includes proper testing equipment and
facilities, trained staff, written testing procedures, calibration
programs, and quality-control programs. An
organization's recognition as an NRTL is, therefore, not for products,
but for appropriate test standards covering a type of product(s) (29
CFR 1910.7(b)(1)).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ In this notice, OSHA uses the terms "equipment" and
"product" or "products" interchangeably.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
For OSHA to consider a test standard appropriate, the test standard
must be current and specify the safety requirements for a specific type
of product(s) (29 CFR 1910.7(c)). A test standard withdrawn by an SDO
is no longer considered an appropriate test standard (Directive, App.
C.XIV.B). It is OSHA's policy to remove acceptance of withdrawn test
standards by issuing a correction notice in the Federal Register for
all NRTLs recognized for the withdrawn test standards. However, OSHA
will recognize an NRTL for an appropriate replacement test standard if
the NRTL has the requisite testing and evaluation capability for
implementing the replacement test standard.
One method that NRTLs may use to show such capability involves an
analysis to determine whether any testing and evaluation requirements
of existing test standards in an NRTL's scope are comparable (i.e., are
completely or substantially identical) to the requirements in the
replacement test standard. If OSHA's analysis shows the replacement
test standard does not require additional or different technical
capability than an existing test standard, the replacement test
standard is comparable to the existing test standard, and OSHA can add
the replacement test standard to affected NRTLs' scopes of recognition.
If OSHA's analysis shows the replacement test standard requires an
additional or different technical capability than any existing test
standard, then the replacement test standard is not comparable to any
existing test standard. In such cases (i.e., when test standards are
not comparable), each affected NRTL that seeks to have OSHA add the
replacement test standard to the NRTL's scope of recognition must
provide information to OSHA that demonstrates its testing and
evaluation capability to implement that standard.
In a November 25, 2013, Federal Register notice (78 FR 70349), OSHA
proposed: (1) Revising its existing policies regarding the
incorporation of new test standards into the NRTL Program's list of
appropriate test standards and into NRTLs' scopes of recognition; and
(2) incorporating new test standards into the NRTL Program's list of
appropriate test standards. The comment period for the public to submit
comments on these proposed actions ended on December 26, 2013.
OSHA received four comments filed in a timely manner (OSHA-2013-
0012-0006, OSHA-2013-0012-0007, OSHA-2013-0012-0008, OSHA-2013-0012-
0009), and one comment filed after the comment period closed (OSHA-
2013-0012-0010), on its proposal. All comments are available for
viewing at http://www.regulations.gov under docket number OSHA-2013-0012. In
this final-decision notice, OSHA addresses these comments and adopts
its proposal with limited revision that reflects some commenters'
concerns. OSHA describes the proposal, comments, and its final decision
in more detail below.
II. Final Decision Revising Existing OSHA Policy
A. Revision to Existing Policy for Incorporating New Test Standards
Into the NRTL Program's List of Appropriate Test Standards
In the November 25, 2013 Federal Register notice, OSHA proposed
revising its existing policy regarding the incorporation of new test
standards into the NRTL Program's list of appropriate test standards.
Pursuant to OSHA's existing policy, OSHA incorporates test standards
into the list of appropriate test standards only when OSHA processes an
NRTL's application for recognition (either initial or expansion), or
when OSHA incorporates into an NRTL's scope of recognition a comparable
replacement test standard for a withdrawn test standard (Directive,
Chapter 2; App. C.XIV.B). OSHA believes that the existing policy delays
the acceptance process for valid test standards, and proposed revising
the existing policy to expedite incorporation of new test standards
into the NRTL Program's list of appropriate test standards and into
NRTLs' scopes of recognition.
OSHA becomes aware of new test standards through various avenues.
For example, OSHA becomes aware of new test standards by: (1)
Monitoring notifications issued by certain SDOs; (2) reviewing
applications by NRTLs or applicants seeking recognition to include a
new test standard in their scopes of recognition; and (3) obtaining
notification from manufacturers, manufacturing organizations, other
government agencies, or other parties that a new test standard may be
appropriate to add to its list of appropriate standards. Accordingly,
OSHA proposed to expand the existing process whereby it incorporates
new test standards into the NRTL Program's list of appropriate test
standards. Under the proposed policy, OSHA would not only include new
test standards in its list of appropriate test standards under the
conditions described by its existing policy, but would include new test
standards in the list when OSHA determined that such test standards are
appropriate to add to the list. 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,
covers a type of product that no standard previously covered, or be
otherwise new to the NRTL Program.
Under the proposed policy, OSHA first would make a preliminary
determination that the new test standard is appropriate under the NRTL
Program regulations (29 CFR 1910.7(c)). The Agency then would
periodically issue a Federal Register notice proposing to include new
test standards that it identifies as appropriate in its list of
appropriate test standards. When an SDO withdraws test standards, OSHA
also may propose in a Federal Register notice that new test standards
replace withdrawn test standards in NRTLs' scopes of recognition. After
OSHA publishes the preliminary determination in a Federal Register
notice, it would give the public an opportunity to comment and, after
reviewing these comments and other record evidence, would issue, in the
Federal Register, a final determination.
No commenter objected to this proposed policy revision. The
National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) and Underwriters
Laboratories, Inc. (UL), expressed support for the proposed policy
(OSHA-2013-0012-0008, OSHA-2013-0012-0009). Therefore, OSHA hereby
revises the policy, as proposed.
NEMA asked that OSHA include the effective dates of test standards
in its list of appropriate test standards (OSHA-2013-0012-0008). In
explaining this comment, NEMA asserted that manufacturers and NRTLs use
the time between the publication and effective dates of a test standard
to become informed of the new requirements. While this might be the
case, OSHA currently does not evaluate test standards with future
effective dates for use in the NRTL Program. OSHA accepts a test
standard as appropriate only after the effective date of the standard.
NEMA stated further that, in determining whether a test standard is
appropriate, OSHA should "continue to rely primarily on U.S. standards
developers accredited by the American National Standards Institute
(ANSI)," which "provides reasonable assurance that the standard is a
good standard and likely to have wide use;". NEMA then stated that
OSHA "should only consider standards developed by organizations
considered to be primary sources that are known to produce universally
acceptable standards representing good design."
OSHA considers the appropriateness of test standards on a case-by-
case basis. OSHA notes, however, that the NRTL Program regulation
constrains its discretion in this area; this regulation requires that,
for OSHA to accept a test standard, the test standard must, at a
minimum, "provide an adequate level of safety" (29 CFR 1910.7(d)).
Also pursuant to the regulation, OSHA generally accepts test standards
developed by SDOs accredited by ANSI (29 CFR 1910.7(c)). ANSI
accreditation ensures that the SDO meets the criteria required in the
regulation for OSHA to consider a test standard appropriate.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ The NRTL Program regulation provides that an "appropriate
test standard" is "a document which specifies the safety
requirements for specific equipment or class of equipment and is:
(1) [r]ecognized in the United States as a safety standard providing
an adequate level of safety, and (2) [c]ompatible with and
maintained current with periodic revisions of applicable national
codes and installation standards, and (3) [d]eveloped by a standards
developing organization under a method providing for input and
consideration of views of industry groups, experts, users,
consumers, governmental authorities, and others having broad
experience in the safety field involved, or (4) [i]n lieu of
paragraphs (c) (1), (2), and (3), the standard is currently
designated as an American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
safety-designated product standard or an American Society for
Testing and Materials (ASTM) test standard used for evaluation of
products or materials" (29 CFR 1910.7(c)).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
B. Revision to Policy for Expanding NRTLs' Scopes of Recognition
Under existing OSHA policy, an NRTL must apply for an expansion of
recognition, pursuant to the procedures in 29 CFR 1910.7, App. A, if
the NRTL wants OSHA to incorporate into its scope of recognition a
replacement test standard that is not comparable to a test standard
that OSHA is removing from that NRTL's scope of recognition because,
for example, an SDO withdrew the predecessor test standard. In the
November 25, 2013, Federal Register notice, OSHA proposed modifying
this policy to provide for an abbreviated recognition process that
allows NRTLs currently recognized for the predecessor standard to
submit to OSHA, in lieu of an application for expansion, only
information that demonstrates that the NRTL has the capability to
perform the testing and evaluation required in the areas of the
replacement test standard that are not equivalent or comparable to the
standard being replaced.
Therefore, under the new policy, when OSHA becomes aware of a
replacement test standard that is not comparable to a test standard
that OSHA is removing from an NRTL's scope of recognition, OSHA would
invite that NRTL, via email or letter, to submit specified information
that OSHA believes demonstrates the requisite testing and evaluation
capability. OSHA would include, in the letter or email, a comparability
table for the replacement test standard that details proposed
substantive differences between the existing and replacement test
standards that OSHA believes the NRTL must address for OSHA to
recognize the NRTL for the replacement standard. OSHA would follow the
procedures specified by 29 CFR 1910.7, App. A, in determining whether
it should incorporate the replacement test standard into the affected
NRTL's scope of recognition. OSHA then would issue a preliminary
determination in the Federal Register, provide the public an
opportunity to comment on the preliminary determination, and, after
reviewing the comments and other record evidence, issue a final
determination in the Federal Register on whether it will incorporate
the replacement test standard into the affected NRTL's scope of
recognition. In making a preliminary or final determination, OSHA also
would follow other applicable procedures specified by 29 CFR 1910.7,
App. A, such as requesting additional information, conducting
appropriate on-site reviews, or initiating special reviews. OSHA
believes the proposed policy would expedite the recognition process of
replacement test standards issued by SDOs.
No commenter objected to the proposed policy revision. UL expressed
support for the proposed revision (OSHA-2013-0012-0009). In its
comments, UL asked that OSHA further revise its policy to allow the use
of the proposed abbreviated recognition process for new test standards
that have no relation to predecessor test standards currently in an
NRTL's scope of recognition (as opposed to replacement test standards
that would replace predecessor test standards that OSHA is removing
from the NRTL's scope of recognition). UL revised the language in the
proposed policy, in part, as follows:
[W]hen an NRTL seeks the addition of a new standard to its
current scope of recognition, the NRTL may submit specified
information that demonstrates it has the requisite testing and
evaluation capability based on standards in its current scope of
recognition. The specified information would include reference to
existing standards in the NRTL's scope that require the capabilities
needed for the new standard. If necessary, the NRTL would also
identify substantive differences in needed capability between the
new standard and existing test standards in its scope of
recognition. The NRTL would provide information about its
capabilities for those substantive differences based on the current
OSHA NRTL application for scope expansion.
(Id.) According to UL, OSHA should require the application process
specified by 29 CFR 1910.7, App. A, only "[f]or the rare situations
where an NRTL wishes to expand into new standards where it has little
or none of the needed capabilities" (id.).
OSHA is not adopting UL's revised language. Accordingly, the key
aspects of OSHA's new policy are that OSHA can now initiate the
recognition process when it becomes aware of a replacement test
standard that is not comparable to a test standard that it is removing
from an NRTL's scope of recognition, and OSHA will inform the NRTL, in
the first instance, of substantive differences between the existing and
replacement test standards that OSHA believes the NRTL must address for
OSHA to recognize the NRTL for the replacement standard. Under UL's
revised language, the NRTL, not OSHA, would initiate the recognition
process, and the NRTL, not OSHA, would inform OSHA of its capability to
perform the test standard.
UL's revised language would not, therefore, significantly expedite
the recognition process for new test standards because UL's revised
language is substantially similar to the existing application process.
Neither OSHA's new policy, nor UL's revised language, would permit the
NRTL to avoid key procedural requirements of the application process.
Indeed, UL agrees, stating in its revised language that "OSHA would
follow the procedures specified by 29 CFR 1910.7, App. A, in
determining whether it should incorporate the new test standard into
the NRTL's scope of recognition" (id.). UL stated further in its
revised language, similar to what OSHA states in its new policy, that
"OSHA would issue a preliminary determination in the Federal Register,
provide the public an opportunity to comment on the preliminary
determination, and, after reviewing the comments and other record
evidence, issue a final determination in the Federal Register on
whether it will incorporate the new test standard into the affected
NRTL's scope of recognition," and "in making a preliminary or final
determination, OSHA also would follow other applicable procedures
specified by 29 CFR 1910.7, App. A, such as requesting additional
information, conducting appropriate on-site reviews, or initiating
special reviews" (id.).
OSHA notes also that its new policy preserves an NRTL's rights,
under existing procedures, to file an application for recognition of
new or replacement test standards. Moreover, OSHA currently allows
NRTLs, through the existing application process, to provide
comparability assessments as an abbreviated method to demonstrate an
NRTL's capability to meet the requirements of an appropriate test
standard. Using this process, the NRTL provides a detailed explanation
of comparability as part of its application for the test standard.
Therefore, UL's revised language is unnecessary.
III. Final Decision Adding Test Standards to the NRTL Program's List of
Appropriate Test Standards
Table 1, below, lists test standards that OSHA is adding to the
NRTL Program under the new policy. OSHA preliminarily determined, as
specified in the November 25, 2013, Federal Register notice (see 78 FR
70349), that these test standards are appropriate test standards and
proposed to include these test standards in the NRTL Program's list of
appropriate test standards.
No commenter objected to the proposal to include these test
standards in the NRTL Program's list of appropriate test standards. UL
and NEMA expressed support for the proposal (OSHA-2013-0012-0008, OSHA-
2013-0012-0009). OSHA, therefore, with one minor revision discussed in
the following paragraph, is making a final determination that these
test standards are appropriate test standards, and, therefore, is
adding these test standards to the NRTL Program's list of appropriate
test standards.
In the proposal, OSHA described one test standard as AAMI ES 60601-
1, "Medical Electrical Equipment--Part 1-2: General requirements for
Basic Safety and Essential Performance-Collateral Standard:
Electromagnetic Compatibility (third edition)." Several commenters
stated that OSHA listed the incorrect designation and title for this
test standard (OSHA-2013-0012-0006, OSHA-2013-0012-0007, OSHA-2013-
0012-0009). OSHA concurs with these commenters and, in the final table,
describes the test standard as "ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1:2005/(R)2012,
Medical electrical equipment, Part 1: General requirements for basic
safety and essential performance (with amendments)."
Mr. Dale Hallerberg stated that the list of appropriate standards
should include, in addition to ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1:2005/(R)2012,
standards that are collateral to ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1:2005/(R)2012, such
as ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1-2 through ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1-12 (OSHA-2013-
0012-0007). Moreover, UL asked that OSHA consider incorporating 13
additional test standards in the NRTL Program's list of appropriate
test standards (OSHA-2013-0012-0009). Finally, the Crane Power Line
Safety Organization (CPLSO), in a late-filed comment, asked OSHA to
consider incorporating CPLSO 14, which addresses testing crane
insulating-link devices, in the NRTL Program's list of appropriate test
standards (OSHA-2013-0012-0010). These recommended additions are beyond
the scope of the present action. OSHA will, however, consider whether
these recommended additions are appropriate test standards when it
proposes additions to the list of appropriate test standards in a
future Federal Register notice.
