  • 2024-28517 — Petition for Modification of Application of Existing Mandatory Safety Standards
    Type:Notice
    Citation:89 FR 97072
    Reading Time:about 5 minutes

    The Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) received a petition from Peabody Midwest Mining, LLC requesting to modify a safety standard regarding the use of non-permissible radios in mines. The current rule mandates the use of approved radios, but with manufacturers no longer making these, Peabody seeks permission to use a battery-powered Motorola R-7 Portable Two-Way Radio. The company argues these radios are safe and necessary for effective communication, which is crucial for the safety of miners. Public comments on the petition are invited until January 6, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    Peabody Midwest Mining asked if they can use special radios that aren't currently allowed in the mines because they believe these radios will help keep miners safe, and they want to hear what people think about this change.
