SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Each underground coal mine has an
emergency response plan (ERP) and
refuge alternative(s) (RA) that protect
miners when escape from a mine during
a mine emergency is not possible by
providing secure spaces with isolated
atmospheres that create life-sustaining
environments.
Title 30 CFR 75.1506 requires mine
operators to provide refuge alternatives.
Section 75.1507 requires the
development and implementation of
emergency response plans. It requires
that the ERP provide detailed
information about the RAs used in the
mine. This information assists miners,
supervisors, emergency responders, and
MSHA in assuring that all essential
preparations are made and required
materials are readily available and in
working order. A mine operator may
notify the District Manager and update
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:18 May 27, 2015
Jkt 235001
the existing ERP if there is a need to
locate a RA in a different location than
the one identified in the ERP for that
mine (as required by section
75.1506(c)(2)).
Section 75.1508 requires the mine
operator to certify that persons assigned
to examine, maintain, and repair RAs
and components are trained for those
tasks. Training certifications assist
MSHA in determining that persons
received the required training. The
training certification for persons
assigned to examine RAs is integrated
into existing requirements for preshift
examinations of the mine under section
75.360 (OMB 1219–0088). The training
certification for persons assigned to
maintain and repair RAs is included in
this package under section 75.1508(a).
Section 75.1508(b) requires a record
of any maintenance and repair
performed on a refuge alternative. This
record assists MSHA in identifying
design flaws or other weaknesses in the
refuge alternative or its components that
could adversely impact the safety of
miners.
II. Desired Focus of Comments

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Methane is a flammable gas found in
underground mines in the United
States. Although methane is often
associated with underground coal
mines, it also occurs in some metal and
nonmetal mines. Underground metal
and Nonmetal mines are categorized
according to the potential to liberate
methane (30 CFR 57.22003—Mine
category or subcategory). Methane is a
colorless, odorless, tasteless gas, and it
tends to rise to the roof of a mine
because it is lighter than air. Although
methane itself is nontoxic, its presence
reduces the oxygen content by dilution
when mixed with air and, consequently,
can act as an asphyxiant when present
in large quantities.
Methane may enter the mining
environment from a variety of sources
including fractures, faults, or shear
zones overlying or underlying the strata
that surround the ore body, or from the
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:18 May 27, 2015
Jkt 235001
ore body itself. It may occur as an
occluded gas within the ore body.
Methane mixed with air is explosive in
the range of 5 to 15 percent, provided
that 12 percent or more oxygen is
present. The presence of dust containing
volatile matter in the mine atmosphere
may further enhance the explosion
potential of methane in a mine. Section
103(i) of the Federal Mine Safety and
Health Act of 1977 (Mine Act), as
amended, requires additional
inspections be conducted at mines
depending on the amount of methane
liberated from a mine.
Title 30 CFR 57.22004(c) requires
operators of underground metal and
nonmetal mines mines to notify MSHA
as soon as possible if any of the
following events occur: (a) There is an
outburst that results in 0.25 percent or
more methane in the mine atmosphere,
(b) there is a blowout that results in 0.25
percent or more methane in the mine
atmosphere, (c) there is an ignition of
methane, or (d) air sample results
indicate 0.25 percent or more methane
in the mine atmosphere of a I–B, I–C, II–
B, V–B, or Category VI mine. Under
sections 57.22239 and 57.22231, if
methane reaches 2.0 percent in a
Category IV mine or if methane reaches
0.25 percent in the mine atmosphere of
a Subcategory I–B, II–B, V–B, or VI
mine, MSHA shall be notified
immediately. Although the standards do
not specify how MSHA is to be notified,
MSHA anticipates that the notifications
would be made by telephone.
Title 30 CFR 57.22229 and 57.22230
require that the mine atmosphere be
tested for methane and/or carbon
dioxide at least once every seven days
by a competent person or atmospheric
monitoring system or a combination of
both. Section 57.2229 applies to
underground metal and nonmetal mines
mines categorized as I–A, III, and V–A
mines where the atmosphere is tested
for both methane and carbon dioxide.
Section 57.22230 applies to
underground metal and nonmetal mines
mines categorized as II–A mines where
the atmosphere is tested for methane.
Where examinations disclose hazardous
conditions, affected miners must be
informed. Title 30 CFR 57.22229(d) and
57.22230(c) require that the person
performing the tests certify by signature
and date that the tests have been
conducted. Certifications of
examinations shall be kept for at least
one year and made available to
authorized representatives of the
Secretary of Labor.

AGENCY:
The National Archives and
Records Administration (NARA)
publishes notice at least once monthly
of certain Federal agency requests for
records disposition authority (records
schedules). Once approved by NARA,
records schedules provide mandatory
instructions on what happens to records
when no longer needed for current
Government business. They authorize
agencies to preserve records of
continuing value in the National
Archives of the United States and to
destroy, after a specified period, records
lacking administrative, legal, research,
or other value. NARA publishes notice
for records schedules in which agencies

propose to destroy records not
previously authorized for disposal or
reduce the retention period of records
already authorized for disposal. NARA
invites public comments on such
records schedules, as required by 44
U.S.C. 3303a(a).
DATES: NARA must receive requests for
copies in writing by June 29, 2015. Once
NARA completes appraisal of the
records, we will send you a copy of the
schedule you requested. We usually
prepare appraisal memoranda that
contain additional information
concerning the records covered by a
proposed schedule. You may also
request these. If you do, we will also
provide them once we have completed
the appraisal. You have 30 days after we
send these requested documents in
which to submit comments.
ADDRESSES: You may request a copy of
any records schedule identified in this
notice by contacting Records
Management Services (ACNR) using one
of the following means:
Mail: NARA (ACNR); 8601 Adelphi
Road; College Park, MD 20740–6001.
Email: request.schedule@nara.gov.
Fax: 301–837–3698.
You must cite the control number,
which appears in parentheses after the
name of the agency which submitted the
schedule, and a mailing address. If you
would like an appraisal report, please
include that in your request.

at 301–837–1799, or by email at
request.schedule@nara.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Each year,
Federal agencies create billions of
records on paper, film, magnetic tape,
and other media. To control this
accumulation, agency records managers
prepare schedules proposing retention
periods for records and submit these
schedules for NARA’s approval. These
schedules provide for timely transfer
into the National Archives of
historically valuable records and
authorize the disposal of all other
records after the agency no longer needs
them to conduct its business. Some
schedules are comprehensive and cover
all the records of an agency or one of its
major subdivisions. Most schedules,
however, cover records of only one
office or program or a few series of
records. Many of these update
previously approved schedules, and
some include records proposed as
permanent.
