to penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information that does not
display a valid OMB Control Number.
See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6.
DOL seeks PRA authorization for this
information collection for three (3)

I. Background
Nicole Bouchet,
Senior PRA Analyst.
Section 101(c) of the Federal Mine
Safety and Health Act of 1977 (Mine
Act) allows the mine operator or
representative of miners to file a
petition to modify the application of any
mandatory safety standard to a coal or
other mine if the Secretary of Labor
determines that:
1. An alternative method of achieving
the result of such standard exists which
will at all times guarantee no less than
the same measure of protection afforded
the miners of such mine by such
standard; or
2. The application of such standard to
such mine will result in a diminution of
safety to the miners in such mine.

In addition, sections 44.10 and 44.11

II. Petition for Modification
Docket Number: M–2024–089–C.
Petitioner: Mingo Logan Coal, LLC,
Sharples, WV 25183.
Mine: Mountaineer II Mine, MSHA ID
No. 46–09029, located in Logan County,
West Virginia.
Regulation Affected: 30 CFR 75.507–
1(a), Permissible electric equipment.
Modification Request: The petitioner
requests a modification of 30 CFR
75.507–1(a) to allow the use of an
alternative method of respirable dust
protection. Specifically, the petitioner is
requesting to use the 3M Versaflo TR–
800 Intrinsically Safe Powered Air
Purifying Respirator (PAPR) and the
CleanSpace EX PAPR in return air outby
the last open crosscut.
The petitioner states that:
(a) Mountaineer II Mine has
previously used the 3M Airstream
Headgear-Mounted PAPR System to
provide additional protection for its
miners against exposure to respirable
coal mine dust. There are clear longterm health benefits from using such
technology. One of the benefits of
PAPRs is that they provide a constant
flow of air inside the headtop or helmet.
This constant airflow helps to provide
both respiratory protection and comfort
in hot working environments.
(b) 3M elected to discontinue the 3M
Airstream helmet, replacing it with the
3M Versaflo TR–800, which benefits
from additional features and reduced
weight. Because of its reduced weight,
it provides significant ergonomic
benefits.
(c) For more than 40 years the 3M
Airstream has been used by many mine
operators to help protect their workers.
During those years there have been
technological advancements in products
and services for industrial applications.
3M indicated that they faced multiple
key component supply disruptions for
the Airstream product line that created
issues with providing acceptable supply
service levels. Because of those issues,
3M discontinued the Airstream in June
2020, and that discontinuation was
global.
(d) 3M announced that February 2020
was the final time to place an order for
systems and components and that June
2020 was the final date to purchase
Airstream components.
(e) Currently there are no replacement
3M PAPRs that meet applicable MSHA
standards for permissibility. Electronic
equipment used in underground mines
in potentially explosive atmospheres are
required to be approved by MSHA in
