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. 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 for filing petitions for modification. II. Petition for Modification Docket Number: M–2020–001–C. Petitioner: Warrior Met Coal Mining, LLC. Mines: Mine No. 4, MSHA I.D. No. 01–01247 and Mine No. 7, MSHA I.D. No. 01–01401, located in Tuscaloosa County, AL. Regulation Affected: 30 CFR 75.1911 (Fire suppression systems for dieselpowered equipment and fuel transportation units). Modification Request: The petitioner requests a modification of the existing standard to allow use of a water-based chemical fire suppression system (instead of a dry chemical system) and a fire monitoring system. The petitioner PO 00000 Frm 00083 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 6223 proposes to use the Fogmaker HighPressure Water Mist Fire Suppression System (‘‘Fogmaker System’’) manufactured by Fogmaker International AB for a variety of diesel equipment including track locomotives, track personnel carriers, outby forklifts, and outby shield haulers. The petitioner states that: (1) The two listed mines are both longwall mines that are geographically close, and use similar mining methods and equipment. (2) Both mines operate in the Blue Creek coal seam located in Tuscaloosa County, Alabama, to produce coal. The petitioner asserts that a waterbased fire suppression system is to be used because it is as effective as a dry chemical system. In support of this view, the petitioner notes that the Fogmaker System has been certified by the Underwriters Laboratories (UL) and Factory Mutual (FM) standards. It has also received the following approvals: PMark SPCR 183, SP Test Method 4912— SP Technical Research Institute of Sweden; American Public Transportation Association Compliant (APTA–BTS–BS–RP–003, APTA BTS– BS–RP–001–05); US Department of Transportation Compliant (DOT 3AL 2216/DOT 173.306(f)); Transport Canada, Certificate #11140; AS5062, Australian Certification for Fire Suppression System on Transportable Machinery. The petitioner asserts that the Fogmaker System meets all of the requirements specified under 30 CFR 75.1911, as follow: (a) As an alternative to 30 CFR 75.1911(a), the water-based fire suppression Fogmaker System will be: (1) Engineered and installed to end fires at an early stage; (2) approved by an independent laboratory, using strict testing standards; (3) able to meet engineering, construction, and operational requirements to cover waterbased automatic extinguisher units made for total flooding applications; and (4) tested for its capability to detect and suppress fires, and monitor operational systems. The Fogmaker System is made up of: Piston accumulator(s), release valve, connector for detection tube, detection bottle, safety valve, outlet for suppression fluid with protective plug, refilling connection for suppression fluid, bracket, clamp, gauge, safety screw, and 2G approved or braided stainless hoses. (b) The Fogmaker System will achieve at least the same measure of protection afforded to the miners by mandatory standard 30 CFR 75.1911. The Fogmaker System meets the mandatory standard in the following manner: (1) The system E:\FR\FM\04FEN1.SGM 04FEN1
