9384 Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 50 / Thursday, March 14, 2019 / Notices 
II. Current Action 
Office of Management and Budget 
approval is being sought for the 
proposed revision of the Consumer Expenditure Surveys: The Quarterly Interview and the Diary. 
As part of an ongoing effort to 
improve data quality, maintain or increase response rates, and reduce data collection costs, CE is seeking clearance for the Large Scale Feasibility Test(LSF) of Online Diaries. CE is also requesting clearance for an increase in the sample sizes of both the CEQ and CED surveys to support CPI. 
A production sample of 2,500 cases 
will be used in the LSF Online Diary test. In order to accommodate LSF Online Diary test, several modifications will be made to production procedures 
and collection including the addition of two question relating to internet access, implementation of an online Diary, and the addition of debriefing questions. The study will be fielded from October 2019 to March 2020 with an expected 1,200 completed cases. The large sample size is needed in order to perform statistically significant analysis of any differences in data quality between the online diaries and production (paper) diaries prior to full production implementation. The study sample will be further divided into two groups, with one group receiving a $5 incentive. 
The CPI program is changing its 
source of outlet frame information from the Telephone Point of Purchase Survey (TPOPS) to the CEQ and CED surveys. As a result, the sample size for the CE surveys will increase.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : 
I. Background 
The NRTL Program 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. The products covered by the NRTL Program consist of those items for which OSHA safety standards require ‘‘certification’’ by a NRTL. The requirements affect electrical products and 38 other types of products. OSHA does not develop or issue these test standards, but generally relies on standards development organizations (SDOs) which develop and maintain the standards using a method that provides input and consideration of views of industry groups, experts, users, consumers, governmental authorities and others having broad experience in the safety field involved. 
Addition of Test Standards to the NRTL 
List of Appropriate Test Standards 
Periodically, OSHA will propose to 
add new test standards to the NRTL List of Appropriate Test Standards following an evaluation of the test standard document. To qualify as an appropriate test standard, the agency evaluates the document to (1) verify it represents a product category for which OSHA requires certification by a NRTL, (2) verify the document represents an end product and not a component, and (3) verify the document defines safety test specifications (not installation or operational performance specifications). OSHA becomes aware of new test standards through various avenues. For example, OSHA may become aware of new test standards by: (1) Monitoring notifications issued by certain Standards Development Organizations; (2) reviewing applications by NRTLs or applicants seeking recognition to include new test standard in their scopes of recognition; and (3) obtaining 
notification from manufacturers, manufacturing organizations, government agencies, or other parties. 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 or it covers a type of product that no standard previously covered. 
II. Proposal To Add a Test Standard to 
the NRTL Program’s List of Appropriate Test Standards 
In this notice, OSHA proposes to add 
one new test standard to the NRTL Program’s List of Appropriate Test Standards. Table 1, below, lists the test standard that is new to the NRTL Program. OSHA preliminarily determined that this test standard is an appropriate test standard and proposes to include it in the NRTL Program’s List of Appropriate Test Standards. OSHA seeks public comment on this preliminary determination. TABLE 1—T ESTSTANDARD OSHA 
PROPOSES TOADD TO THE NRTL 
PROGRAM ’SLIST OF APPROPRIATE  
TESTSTANDARDS  
Proposed test standard 
to be added Test standard title 
ANSI/CPLSO 14–2016 ... Crane Insulators. 
III. Public Participation 
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, by the due date for comments. OSHA will limit any extension to 10 days unless the requester justifies a longer time period. OSHA may deny a request for an extension if it is not adequately justified. 
To obtain or review copies of 
comments submitted to the docket, contact the Docket Office, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, at the above address. These materials will also be available online at http://www.regulations.gov under Docket No. 
OSHA–2013–0012. 
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 regarding the addition of one test standard to the NRTL Program’s List of Appropriate Test Standards. The Assistant Secretary will make the final decision. 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 
this final decision in the Federal Register.
