SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
prohibited transaction described in
section 406(a)(1)(C) of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA)
generally prohibits the furnishing of
goods, services, or facilities between a
plan and a party in interest to the plan.
Since ERISA defines any person
furnishing services to the plan as a
‘‘party in interest’’ to the plan, a service
relationship between a plan and a
service provider would constitute a
prohibited transaction under section
406(a)(1)(C) in the absence of relief.
Section 408(b)(2) of ERISA provides
relief, however, for service contracts or
arrangements if the contract or
arrangement is ‘‘reasonable,’’ if the
services are necessary for the
establishment or operation of the plan,
and if no more than ‘‘reasonable’’
compensation is paid for the services.
For additional substantive information
about this ICR, see the related notice
published in the Federal Register on
March 31, 2021 (86 FR 16787).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Notice of the Application for
Expansion
OSHA is providing notice that CSA
Group Testing & Certification Inc. (CSA)
is applying for expansion of their
current recognition as an NRTL. CSA
requests the addition of seven test
standards to the 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 the scope of recognition.
Each NRTL’s scope of recognition
includes (1) the type of products the
NRTL may test, with each type specified
by the 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 an application
by a NRTL for initial recognition and for
an expansion or renewal of this
recognition, following requirements in
Appendix A, 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 the
preliminary finding. In the second
notice, the agency provides the 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 CSA, 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.
CSA currently has six facilities (sites)
recognized by OSHA for product testing
and certification. The headquarters
location is Canadian Standards
Association, 178 Rexdale Boulevard,
Etobicoke, Ontario, M9W 1R3, Canada.
A complete list of CSA’s scope of
recognition is available at https://
www.osha.gov/dts/otpca/nrtl/csa.html.
