SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Under Section 101(a) of the Federal
Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977
(Mine Act), the Secretary of Labor shall
develop, promulgate, and revise as may
be appropriate, improved mandatory
health or safety standards for the
protection of life and prevention of
injuries in coal or other mines. In
addition, Section 103(h) of the Mine Act
mandates that mine operators keep any
records and make any reports that are
reasonably necessary for the Mine
Safety and Health Administration to
perform its duties under the Mine Act.
MSHA established standards and
regulations for diesel-powered
equipment in underground coal mines
that provide additional important
protection for coal miners who work on
and around diesel-powered equipment.
The standards were designed to reduce
the risks to underground coal miners of
serious health hazards that are

associated with exposure to high
concentrations of diesel particulate
matter. The standards contain
information collection requirements for
underground coal mine operators in
72.510(a) & (b), 72.520(a) & (b).
Section 72.510(a) requires
underground coal mine operators to
provide annual training to all miners
who may be exposed to diesel
emissions. The training must include
health risks associated with exposure to
diesel particulate matter; methods used
in the mine to control diesel particulate
concentrations; identification of the
personnel responsible for maintaining
those controls; and actions miners must
take to ensure controls operate as
intended.
Section 72.510(b) requires
underground coal mine operators to
keep a record of the training for one
year.
Section 72.520(a) and (b) requires
underground coal mine operators to
maintain an inventory of diesel powered
equipment units together with a list of
information about any unit’s emission
control or filtration system. The list
must be updated within 7 calendar days
of any change.
II. Desired Focus of Comments

comments that:
• Evaluate whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
