and recovery operations. The plan is
used to instruct employees in the proper
methods to evacuate structures in the
event of a fire. MSHA inspection
personnel use the plan to determine
compliance with the standard requiring
a means of escape and evacuation be
established and the requirement that
employees be instructed in the
procedures to follow should a fire occur.
II. Desired Focus of Comments
MSHA is soliciting comments
concerning the proposed information
collection related to Escape and
Evacuation Plans for Surface Coal
Mines, Surface Facilities and Surface

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Under Title 30 U.S. Code of Federal
Regulations (30 CFR) Parts 7 and 15, the
Mine Safety and Health Administration
(MSHA) evaluates and approves
explosive materials and blasting units as
permissible for use in the mining
industry. However, since there are no
permissible explosives or blasting units
available that have adequate blasting
capacity for some metal and nonmetal
gassy mines, 30 CFR 57.22606(a)
outlines the procedures for mine
operators to follow when using
nonapproved explosive materials and
blasting units. The standard requires
mine operators of Class III metal or
nonmetal mines to notify MSHA in
writing prior to their use of
nonapproved explosive materials and
blasting units. MSHA then evaluates the
non-approved explosive materials and
determines whether they are safe for use
in a gassy environment.
II. Desired Focus of Comments
MSHA is soliciting comments
concerning the proposed information
collection related to Explosive Materials
and Blasting Units (pertains only to
metal and nonmetal underground mines
deemed to be gassy). MSHA is

• Suggest methods to enhance the
