Petitioner: Frasure Creek Mining, LLC, P.O. Box 142, Justice, West Virginia 24851. Mine: Deep Mine No. 11, MSHA I.D. No. 46–09329, located in Fayette County, West Virginia, and Isaban Deep Mine No. 3, MSHA I.D. No. 46–09245, located in Mingo County, West Virginia. Regulation Affected: 30 CFR 75.1101– 1(b) (Deluge-type water spray systems). Modification Request: The petitioner requests a modification of the existing standard to eliminate the use of blowoff dust covers for the spray nozzles of a deluge-type water spray system. The petitioner proposes to conduct a weekly inspection and functional test of its complete deluge-type spray system. The petitioner states that: (1) The system consists of an average of thirty (30) sprays along each of approximately ten (10) primary belt-conveyor drives and an average of sixty (60) sprays along each of eight (8) secondary drives; (2) the nozzles are currently provided with blow-off dust covers, but the dust covers are not necessary because the nozzles can be maintained in an unclogged condition through weekly use; and (3) it is burdensome to recap the large number of covers weekly after each inspection and functional test. The petitioner asserts that the proposed alternative method will at all times guarantee no less than the same measure of protection afforded the miners than the existing standard. Docket Number: M–2011–001–M. Petitioner: Carmeuse Industrial Sands, P.O. Box 429, Brady, Texas 76825. Mine: Brady Plant, MSHA I.D. No. 41– 01371, located in McCulloch County, Texas. Regulation Affected: 30 CFR 56.13020 (Use of compressed air). Modification Request: The petitioner requests a modification of the existing standard to permit the implementation of a clothes cleaning booth process that has been jointly developed with and successfully tested by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH). This process utilizes controlled compressed air for the purpose of cleaning miners’ dust laden clothing. The petitioner states: (1) Only miners trained in the operation of the NIOSH-tested clothes cleaning booth process will be permitted to use the process. (2) Clothes cleaning booth process training will be incorporated into the Part 46 training plan. (3) All miners entering the NIOSH-tested clothes cleaning booth will be required to wear full seal goggles for eye protection, ear plugs or muffs for hearing protection, and fit-tested respirators with N100 filters for VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:17 Mar 23, 2011 Jkt 223001 respiratory protection. (4) The clothes cleaning booth will have a caution sign, conspicuously posted, indicating that the use of respirators, hearing protection, and goggles are required before entering the booth. (5) Air pressure through the spray manifold will be limited to 30 pounds per square inch. A lock-box with a single key controlled by the Plant Manager will be used to prevent tampering with the regulator. (6) The air spray manifold will consist of 1.5 inch schedule 80 pipe, which has a failure pressure of 1,300 pounds per square inch, capped at the base and actuated by an electricallycontrolled ball valve at the top. (7) The air spray manifold will contain 26 total nozzles of which 25 will be 18.4 SCFM @ 3 psig and the 26th and lowermost nozzle will be 19.2 SCFM @ 30 psig. (8) The uppermost spray nozzle will be located at a height of not more than 56 inches. Those miners with a shoulder height less than 56 inches will use mechanical air spray deflectors, which are quick, effective, and easy to use. (9) Miners will be use side deflectors to eliminate the possibility of incidental contact with the air nozzles during use of the clothes cleaning booth. (10) Spraying Systems Company Nozzle No. AA727–23 contains a recessed design to provide air escape should the nozzle be accidentally placed against a surface. (11) An electrically actuated valve will be inter-locked into the bag house dust collector to prevent use of the clothes cleaning booth if the dust collection system is not functioning or inoperable. (12) The clothes cleaning booth will be fitted with a stand-alone dust collection system. (13) Airflow through the clothes cleaning booth will be sufficient to maintain negative pressure during its use in order to prevent contamination of the environment outside of the booth. (14) The air receiver tank supplying air to the manifold system will be of sufficient volume to permit not less than 20 seconds of continuous cleaning time. (15) Airflow through the booth will be in the downward direction, thereby moving contaminants away from the miner’s breathing zone. (16) Miners entering the clothes cleaning booth will perform regular user checks examining the valves and nozzle for damage of malfunction and ensure that the door is fully closed before opening the air valve. (17) Periodic maintenance checks will be performed in accordance with the NIOSH recommendation contained within the ‘‘Clothes Cleaning Process Instruction Manual.’’ No significant safety or health concerns have been identified because the eyes are protected by full seal goggles, the skin is protected PO 00000 Frm 00047 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 16643 by work clothes, hearing is protected by plugs or muffs, and the lungs are protected by a respirator, and air is limited to 30 pounds per square inch, which is the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) limit for cleaning purposes. The petitioner asserts that the cleaning process will provide a more effective clothes cleaning method and a direct reduction of a miners’ exposure to respirable crystalline silica dust, thus reducing their health risks while providing no less a degree of safety than that provided by the standard.
