Further, section 101(a) of the Mine Act, 30 U.S.C. 811(a), authorizes the Secretary of Labor (Secretary) 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, metal, and nonmetal mines. B. Information Collection In order to fulfill the statutory mandates to promote miners’ health and safety, MSHA requires the collection of information under the information collection request entitled Ventilation Plans, Tests, and Examinations in Underground Coal Mines. The information collection is intended to ensure that required ventilation-related tests and examinations are made and that ventilation systems in underground coal mines are maintained.
