49.2 (Availability of mine rescue teams)
to its No. 1 Slope Mine (MSHA I.D. No.

modification of the existing standard to
permit the use of reduction of two mine
rescue teams with three members with
one alternative for either team in lieu of
two mine rescue teams with five

the miners at the mine and members of
the rescue team, and that the proposed
alternative method would provide at
least the same measure of protection as
the existing standard.
