SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Section 103(h) of the Federal Mine
Safety and Health Act of 1977 (Mine
Act), 30 U.S.C. 813(h), authorizes
MSHA to collect information necessary
to carry out its duty in protecting the
safety and health of miners. Further,
section 101(a) of the Mine Act, 30 U.S.C.
811, authorizes the Secretary of Labor to
develop, promulgate, and revise as may
be appropriate, improved mandatory
health or safety standards for the
protection of life and prevention of
injuries in coal and metal and nonmetal
mines.
In this revision to OMB No. 1219–
0144, it is being combined with OMB
No. 1219–0078 (Expiring 2/29/2020) to
be housed in OMB No. 1219–0144 only.
The 5000–3 Form, which currently
belongs to both OMB No.’s, will then
cover one OMB No.
30 CFR part 49, subpart B—Mine
Rescue Teams for Underground Coal
Mines, sets standards related to the
availability of mine rescue teams;
alternate mine rescue capability for
small and remote mines; inspection and
maintenance records of mine rescue
equipment and apparatus; physical
requirements for mine rescue team
members and alternates; and experience
and training requirements for team
members and alternates. The collection
of information under 30 CFR part 49,
subpart B, covers the following
requirements for underground coal
mines.
Section 49.12 requires each operator
of an underground coal mine to send the
District Manager a statement describing
the mine’s method of compliance with
this standard.

Section 49.13 provides that operators
of small and remote mines may submit
an application for alternative mine
rescue capability to MSHA for approval.
Section 49.16 requires that a person
trained in the use and care of a
breathing apparatus must inspect and
test the apparatus at intervals not
exceeding 30 days and must certify by
signature and date that the required
inspections and tests were done, and
record any corrective action taken.
Section 49.17 requires that each
member of a mine rescue team be
examined annually by a physician who
must certify that each person is
physically fit to perform mine rescue
and recovery work.
Section 49.18 requires that a record of
the training received by each mine
rescue team member be made and kept
on file at the mine rescue station for a
period of one year. The operator must
provide the District Manager
information concerning the schedule of
upcoming training when requested.
Section 49.19 requires that each mine
have a mine rescue notification plan
outlining the procedures to be followed
in notifying the mine rescue teams
when there is an emergency that
requires their services.
Section 49.50 requires underground
coal mine operators to certify that each
designated coal mine rescue team meets
the requirements of 30 CFR part 49
subpart B.
Sections 75.1713–1 and 77.1702
require operators to make arrangements
for 24-hour emergency medical
assistance and transportation for injured
persons and to post this information at
appropriate places at the mine,
including the names, titles, addresses,
and telephone numbers of all persons or
services currently available under those
arrangements.
Under 30 CFR part 49 subpart A,
Mine Rescue Teams for Underground
Metal and Nonmetal Mines, requires
every operator of an underground mine
to assure the availability of mine rescue
capability for purposes of emergency
rescue and recovery. This collection of
information relates to the availability of
mine rescue teams; alternate mine
rescue capability for small and remote
