Powered Haulage Safety

17

MSHA.GOV | @USDOL #MSHA

Powered Haulage accidents are low- frequency, high-consequence events

  • 50% of fatalities in 2017
  • 46% of fatalities so far in 2018
  • 5 fatalities in 2019 – two are powered

haulage Preventing these accidents is a priority for MSHA! Focus on mobile equipment, seatbelts and conveyor systems

Seatbelts Save Lives

  • 3 fatalities in 2018,

38 fatalities since 2007 involved miners not wearing seat belts

  • 6000 MSHA

citations issued since 2007; enforcement alone not enough

This loader operator saved by wearing seatbelt

slide-22
SLIDE 22

MSHA.GOV | @MSHA_DOL

Two seatbelt fatalities in one week

October 19, 2018: 63-yr-old operator lost control

  • f his haul truck while descending 18% grade,

drove through berm; no seatbelt used October 25, 2018: 29-yr-old driver died when pick- up flipped after climbing a berm; no seatbelt used

Belt Conveyors

23

MSHA.GOV | @USDOL #MSHA

  • Seven miners killed working around belt

conveyors since January 2017: four in coal, three in MNM

  • Total of 19 conveyor-related fatalities

AND 41 conveyor-related permanent injuries since 2008

  • Guarding, lock-out tag-out, properly

using crossovers, all essential for safety

Fire Suppression Failures

25

MSHA.GOV | @USDOL #MSHA

  • Four mobile equipment fires in September

2018 (two rock trucks, one hydraulic shovel,

  • ne excavator)
  • Fire suppression systems failed in all
  • One miner killed, another injured
  • Fire suppression equipment must be

properly installed

  • Miners should have a means to escape

MSHA.GOV | @MSHA_DOL

Scofflaw Initiative

  • Small share of operators are chronically

delinquent and have poor safety records

  • Monthly selection of the worst violators
  • Payment plans proposed/established with

total commitment of $5.5 million

  • 17 mines paid in full for $1.5 million
  • 38 104(a) citations issued; 16 104(b) orders

issued; all but 3 operations are now open
