dust as defined in the Coal Mine Health
and Safety Act of 1969.
Given the results of the recent coal
dust particle size survey and large-scale
explosion tests, NIOSH recommends a
new standard of 80% TIC be required in
the intake airways of bituminous coal
mines. The survey results indicate that
the current requirement of 80% TIC in
return airways is still sufficient and
appropriate. In addition, NIOSH agrees
with and endorses an earlier
recommendation that new rock dusting
standards should be based on a worstcase scenario (using high volatile coals)
with no relaxation for lower volatile
coals.
