[These are not toll-free numbers.] SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background Section 101(c) of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (Mine Act) allows the mine operator or representative of miners to file a petition to modify the application of any mandatory safety standard to a coal or other mine if the Secretary of Labor 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 addition, the regulations at 30 CFR 44.10 and 44.11 establish the requirements and procedures for filing petitions for modification. II. Petitions for Modification Docket Number: M–2016–008–C. Petitioner: Rosebud Mining Company, 301 Market Street, Kittanning, Pennsylvania 16201. Mine: Barrett Mine, MSHA I.D. No. 36–09342, located in Indiana County, Pennsylvania. Regulation Affected: 30 CFR 75.503 (Permissible electric face equipment; maintenance) and 18.35(a)(5)(i) (Portable (trailing) cables and cords). Modification Request: The petitioner requests a modification of the existing standard to permit the use of 480-volt trailing cables with a maximum length of 950 feet when No. 4 American Wire Gauge (AWG) cable is used on roof bolters. The petitioner states that: (1) The trailing cables for the 480-volt bolters will not be smaller than No. 4 AWG cable. (2) All circuit breakers used to protect the No. 4 AWG trailing cable exceeding PO 00000 Frm 00069 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 700 feet in length will have instantaneous trip units calibrated to trip at 500 amperes. The trip setting of these circuit breakers will be sealed to ensure that the settings on these breakers cannot be changed, and these circuit breakers will have permanent, legible labels. Each label will identify the circuit breaker as being suitable for protecting the cables as listed above. (3) Replacement circuit breakers and/ or instantaneous trip units used to protect the No. 4 AWG trailing cable will be calibrated to trip at 500 amperes and they will be sealed. (4) All components that provide shortcircuit protection will have a sufficient interruption rating in accordance with the maximum calculated fault currents available. (5) During each production day, the trailing cables and the circuit breakers will be examined in accordance with all 30 CFR provisions. (6) Permanent warning labels will be installed and maintained on the load center identifying the location of each short-circuit protection device. These labels will warn miners not to change or alter the settings of these devices. (7) If the affected trailing cables are damaged in any way during the shift, the cable will be de-energized and repairs made. (8) The alternative method will not be implemented until all miners who have been designated to operate the bolters, or any other person designated to examine the trailing cables or trip settings on the circuit breakers, have received the proper training as to the performance of their duties. (9) Within 60 days after the proposed decision and order becomes final, the petitioner will submit proposed revisions for their approved 30 CFR part 48 training plans to the District Manager. These revisions will specify task training for miners designated to examine the trailing cables for safe operating condition and verify that the short-circuit settings of the circuitinterrupting devices that protect the affected trailing cables do not exceed the settings specified previously in this petition. The training will include the following elements: (a) The hazards of setting short-circuit interrupting device(s) too high to adequately protect the trailing cables. (b) How to verify that the circuit interrupting device(s) protecting the trailing cable(s) are properly set and maintained. (c) Mining methods and operating procedures that will protect the trailing cables against damage. (d) Proper procedures for examining the trailing cables to ensure that the E:\FR\FM\13APN1.SGM 13APN1
