SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction

    Under section 101(c) of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 
1977, any mine operator or representative of miners may petition to use 
an alternative approach to comply with a mandatory safety standard. In 
response, the Secretary of Labor (Secretary) or his or her designee may 
modify the application of a mandatory safety standard to that mine if 
the Secretary determines that: (1) An alternative method exists that 
will guarantee no less protection for the miners affected than that 
provided by the standard; or (2) the application of the standard will 
result in a diminution of safety to the affected miners.
    MSHA bases the final decision on the petitioner's statements, any 
comments and information submitted by interested persons, and a field 
investigation of the conditions at the mine. In some instances, MSHA 
may approve a petition for modification on the condition that the mine 
operator complies with other requirements noted in the decision. In 
other instances, MSHA may deny, dismiss, or revoke a petition for 
modification. In accordance with 30 CFR 44.5, MSHA publishes every 
final action granting a petition for modification.
