The White House issued Executive
Order 14008, Tackling the Climate
Crisis at Home and Abroad, resulting in
part, in the Council on Environmental
Quality and a White House advisory
committee focused on serving
environmental justice communities. The
policy of the Administration is to secure
economic justice and spur economic
opportunities for disadvantaged
communities that have been historically
marginalized and overburdened,
including places that have suffered as a
result of economic shifts and places that
have suffered the most from persistent
pollution, including low-income rural
and urban communities, communities of
color, and Native communities. At the
Department we refer to the individuals
in such communities as disadvantaged
workers.
The Department provides a range of
services that seeks to assist and improve
the overall job quality for disadvantaged
workers, through job search, training,
income maintenance, worker
empowerment, safety and health
protections, and other worker
protections. The Department is
interested in learning about potential
approaches and gathering feedback to
improving services for the economically
disadvantaged. In this session, the
Department will seek public input on
what are the greatest needs and/or
barriers facing disadvantaged and/or
environmentally-impacted communities
as it relates to employment, worker
protections, and worker rights.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title 30
CFR 75.1716, 75.1716–1 and 75.1716–3
require operators of underground coal
mines to provide MSHA notification
before mining under bodies of water and
to obtain a permit to mine under a body
of water if, in the judgment of the
Secretary, it is sufficiently large to
constitute a hazard to miners. The
regulation is necessary to prevent the
inundation of underground coal mines
with water that cause hazards to miners,
including the potential for drowning.

Under
section 313 of the Federal Mine Safety
and Health Act of 1977 (Mine Act), 30
U.S.C. 873, any explosives used in
underground coal mines must be
permissible. The Mine Act also provides
that, under safeguards prescribed by the
Secretary, the firing of more than 20
shots and the use of nonpermissible
explosives in sinking shafts and slopes
from the surface in rock may be
permitted. 30 CFR 75.1321 outlines the
procedures by which a permit may be
issued for the firing of more than 20
boreholes and for the use of
nonpermissible shot-firing units in
underground coal mines. At surface coal
mines and surface work areas of
underground coal mines, 30 CFR
77.1909–1 outlines the procedures by
which a coal mine operator may apply
for a permit to use non-permissible
explosives and shot-firing units in the
blasting of rock during the development
of shafts or slopes. Additionally, in the
event of a misfire of explosives, 30 CFR
75.1327 requires that a qualified person
post a warning to prohibit entry at each
accessible entrance to the affected area.
