Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 191 / Tuesday, October 3, 2006 / Notices New Mexico. The petitioner states that the miner will wear the M–20 units (MSHA rated at 10 minutes) on their person and a 60 minute unit (the SR– 100, EBA 6.5 or equivalent MSHA rated for 60 minutes) on their vehicles or equipment. These units will be located within 300 to 500 feet or 5 minutes maximum of the employee. The combination of devices will be made available to all employees working underground and maintained in good condition. The petitioner further states that: (1) This proposal will satisfy the State Mining Act while enabling the miners to wear an ergonomically suitable SCSR on their belt; (2) the alternative to the smaller M–20 type are bulky and heavy units that will expose the miners to additional risk associated with a large and heavy unit hanging off their belt; and (3) the current MSA W– 65 filter self rescuer (Approval No. TC– 14G–82) weighs 2.2 pounds, and the smallest SCSR is the SR–100 which weighs 6 pounds and is approximately 2.5 larger than the W–65 filter and is awkward to wear. The petitioner asserts that the proposed alternative method would provide at least the same measure of protection as the existing standard. 7.
