On December 3, 2021, Commission Chief Administrative Law Judge Glynn F. Voisin issued an order which is posted on the Commission’s website (www.fmshrc.gov). The contents of the order are set forth in this notice. As of January 3, 2022, the Commission will resume in-person hearings, but for the duration of the Chief Judge’s December 3 order, all hearings are subject to the following terms set forth in the order. Commission Judges may, at their sole discretion, hold remote hearings (e.g. via Zoom) and require specific procedures to provide for safety. Commission Judges shall exercise this discretion within uniform parameters as set forth herein. Each Judge shall determine (1) when to use remote hearings in lieu of in-person hearings and (2) specific safety procedures to be used at an in-person hearing. In determining use of a remote hearing, Judges will consider safety factors on a case-by-case basis. Judges also have the discretion to hold a hybrid hearing, that includes both in-person and video participation. Judges will ensure all parties appearing pro se who are required to participate in a remote hearing have access to equipment, an internet connection, and other appropriate technology.

During the prehearing conference, the Judge will inform the parties of the federal, state, local and courtroom requirements and seek a commitment to adhere to those requirements. The requirements apply to all attorneys, assistants, parties, and witnesses. The discussion will also address who may enter the courtroom, when, and what safety measures, such as masks and social distancing, must be implemented. No person may enter the courtroom, or the witness room without the permission of the Judge. Hearing participants are subject to the following vaccination requirements for attendance at in-person hearings: • FMSHRC employees: Æ FMSHRC employees must be fully vaccinated by November 22, 2021, unless a legally required exemption applies. All FMSHRC employees must adhere to CDC guidance on social distancing and mask wearing. • Visitors: Æ Visitors are federal employees from other agencies such as the Department of Labor, spectators, and press. Visitors must attest to their vaccination status using the Certificate of Vaccination form at https:// www.saferfederalworkforce.gov/ downloads/CertificationVaccination PRAv7.pdf.

Visitors who are not fully vaccinated shall show proof of a negative COVID–19 test result from a Food and Drug Administration authorized test taken within three days prior to entry to the in-person hearing. The Judge shall not collect documentation to verify COVID–19 test results. All visitors must adhere to CDC guidance on social distancing and mask wearing. • Contractors: Æ Court reporters are contractors and must be fully vaccinated by January 18, 2022, unless a legally required exemption applies.
