Delineators will be used along the
perimeter of areas of the roadway where
no pipeline was laid and there was a
drop-off sufficient for equipment to
overturn. Delineators are installed along
the perimeter of the impoundment so
that, for both directions of travel, the
reflective surfaces of at least three
delineators along each elevation will
always be visible to the driver and
spaced at intervals sufficient to indicate
the edges and altitude of the roadway;
(6) access to the locked gate will be
limited to individuals who have
received and successfully completed
training consisting of applicable task
training, and a supervised tour of the
impoundment roadway. A training form
will be completed for each employee
that receives the training and will detail
the topics covered in the training.
Personnel deemed essential by the
petitioner to operate equipment in the
area who has not received the training
will be accompanied by a person who
has received the specified training.
Training will be valid for four years
from the date of completion; (7) records
of the training will be maintained for
four years and made available to MSHA
upon request; and (8) to enable U.S.
Silver to not berm the inside of the
impoundment roadway not only
prevents a diminution of safety for
miners, it provides an alternative
method of achieving the results of the
standard which at all times guarantees
no less than the same measure of
protection to all miners at the Galena
Mine afforded by the standard.

mandatory safety standard to a coal or
other mine if the Secretary determines
that: (1) An alternative method of
achieving the result of such standard
exists which will at all times guarantee
no less than the same measure of
protection afforded the miners of such
mine by such standard; or (2) that the
application of such standard to such
mine will result in a diminution of
safety to the miners in such mine. In
