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 or other mines.
Each underground coal mine has an
emergency response plan (ERP) and
refuge alternatives (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 RAs.
Section 75.1507 requires the
development and implementation of
ERP. 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 ensuring 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 the existing ERP if there is a
PO 00000
Frm 00079
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

need to locate an 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 an RA. This record assists
MSHA in identifying design flaws or
other weaknesses in the RA or its
components that could adversely impact
the safety of miners.
II. Desired Focus of Comments
MSHA is soliciting comments
concerning the proposed information
collection related to Refuge Alternatives
for Underground Coal Mines. MSHA is
particularly interested in comments
that:
• Evaluate whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Agency, including whether the
information has practical utility;
• Evaluate the accuracy of MSHA’s
estimate of the burden of the collection
of information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
• Suggest methods to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.
Background documents related to this
information collection request are
available at https://regulations.gov and
at DOL–MSHA located at 201 12th
Street South, Suite 4E401, Arlington,
VA 22202–5452. Questions about the
information collection requirements
may be directed to the person listed in
the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION section of
this notice.
III. Current Actions
This information collection request
concerns provisions for Refuge
