MSHA’s Tools

  • Fair and Consistent Enforcement - mandated

inspections (2s and 4s) are core responsibility

  • Education and Training
  • Compliance and Technical Assistance
  • Technological Innovation – working with
  • perators, manufacturers and NIOSH

MINING REPORTABLE INJURY RATES 2008-2017

*The all injury rate represents the number of reportable injuries per 200,000 exposure hours. NOTE: State employment data reflects

  • perator employment
  • nly (contractors

do not report employment by state). Therefore, state data only includes operators, while National data includes both operators and contractors. Data as of April 30, 2018.

Safety and Technology

  • Continuous improvement; adapt as new

technology emerges

  • Proximity detection in underground mines a

success

  • Worth pursuing: Fatigue management, seat

belt improvements, collision avoidance on surface, more

  • Let’s take care of the people going to work

tomorrow morning

Powered Haulage Safety Initiative

  • Powered Haulage = 50% of fatalities in 2017; 50% of

fatalities so far in 2018

  • New MSHA initiative to reduce powered haulage

accidents

  • Outreach, training, collaboration with operators and

miners, RFI

  • Three target areas (initially): Large vehicles/blind

spots; seatbelt usage; conveyor belt safety

Large Vehicles Striking Small Vehicles

2017 Nationwide: 4 fatalities from large vehicles hitting smaller vehicles Since 2003: 23 such fatalities – Unacceptable!

Proximity detection for surface mines?

Driver saved by wearing a seat belt

Seat Belt Safety

  • Three fatalities in

2017, and 35 fatalities since 2007, involved miners not wearing seat belts

  • 6000+ MSHA

citations issued for failure to wear seatbelts since 2007 (most in MNM mines)

Loader operator saved by wearing seat belt

Conveyor Belt Safety

  • Five miners killed working

around conveyor belts since January 2017: four in coal,

  • ne in MNM
  • Since 2008, total of 18

conveyor-related fatalities and 41 conveyor-related permanent injuries

  • Guarding, lock-out tag-out,

properly using crossovers, all essential for safety

Policy Update

  • Diesel exhaust
  • Retrospective review of dust rule
  • Silica and dust standards
  • Request for Information (RFI) on Powered

Haulage Safety

Scofflaw Initiative

  • Small share of operators are chronically

delinquent and have poor safety records

  • Monthly batches of letters to worst violators;

nearly 30 sent to debtors so far

  • 10 payment plans proposed/established with

commitments of more than $2 million

  • One 104(b) order issued; the mine entered

into a payment plan and reopened
