Administration.
Type of Review: Revision of a

Description: Under section 313 of the
Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of
1977 (Mine Act), 30 U.S.C. 873, any
explosives used in underground coal
mines must be permissible. The Mine
Act also provides that, under safeguards
prescribed by the Secretary of Labor, a
mine operator may permit the firing of
more than 20 shots and the use of
nonpermissible explosives in sinking
shafts and slopes from the surface in
rock. Title 30 CFR 75.1321 outlines the
procedures by which a permit may be
issued for the firing of more than 20
boreholes and/or the use of
nonpermissible shot-firing units in
underground coal mines. In those
instances in which there is a misfire of
explosives, 30 CFR 75.1327 requires that
a qualified person post each accessible
entrance to the affected area with a
warning to prohibit entry. Title 30 CFR
77.1909–1 outlines the procedures by
which a coal mine operator may apply
for a permit to use nonpermissible
explosives and/or shot-firing units in
the blasting of rock while sinking shafts
or slopes for underground coal mines.
