BUREAU OF DEEP MINE SAFETY
The Bureau of Deep Mine Safety (BDMS) has approved Rosebud Mining Company's request for a variance from the requirements of section 242(c) of the Pennsylvania Bituminous Coal Mine Act at the Roaring Run Mine. This notification contains a summary of this request and the basis for the Department's approval. A complete copy of the variance request may be obtained from Allison Gaida by calling (724) 439-7469 or from the BDMS web site at http://www.dep.state.pa.us/dep/deputate/minres/dms/dms.htm.
Summary of the request: Rosebud Mining Company requested a variance from section 242(c) of the Pennsylvania Bituminous Coal Mine Act to allow for the common ventilation of belt conveyor entry with other entries at the Roaring Run Mine. The proposal accords protection to personnel and property substantially equal to or greater than the requirements of section 242(c).
The basis for the Bureau's approval is summarized as follows:
1. Roaring Run's plan provides for an advanced fire detection and control system consisting of CO monitors, thermal detectors, and a fire suppression system.
2. Roaring Run's plan provides a separate intake escapeway that will be isolated from the belt conveyor entries. The isolated intake escapeway will be maintained at a higher ventilation pressure than the belt and common entries.
3. Roaring Run's plan provides for the belt and common entries to serve as an alternate intake escapeway.
4. There are significant health and safety benefits associated with allowing entries in common with the belt entry. Safer access is provided to workers performing repair and maintenance work in the belt entry. Improved visual safety inspections are facilitated by open crosscuts.
This approval is limited to the use of entries in common with the belt entry. All other terms and requirements of section 242(c) shall remain in effect. Continued authorization for operation under the approval is contingent upon compliance with the measures described in Roaring Run's plan and the following conditions.
1. Operation, maintenance and calibration of the point CO (carbon monoxide) monitor system shall comply with the manufacturer's recommendations and DEP equipment approval number BOTE 1712-98.
2. At all times, Rosebud Mining Company shall comply with the requirements of the Mine Safety and Health Administration's (MSHA) Fire Fighting and Evacuation Plan.
3. Notification of DEP District Mine Inspector when the point CO monitor system has been installed.
The Bureau of Deep Mine Safety has approved Sarah Resources, Inc.'s request for a variance from the requirements of section 242(c) of the Pennsylvania Bituminous Coal Mine Act at the Sarah Mine. This notification contains a summary of this request. A complete copy of the variance request may be obtained from Allison Gaida by calling (724) 439-7469 or from the BDMS web site at http://www.dep.state.pa.us/dep/deputate/minres/dms/dms.htm.
Summary of the request: Sarah Resources, Inc. requested a variance from section 242(c) of the Pennsylvania Bituminous Coal Mine Act to allow for the common ventilation of belt conveyor entry with other entries at the Sarah Mine. The proposal accords protection to persons and property substantially equal to or greater than the requirements of section 242(c).
The basis for the Bureau's approval is summarized in the following statements:
1. Sarah's plan provides early warning fire detection by the use of carbon monoxide (CO) detectors and audible alarm over the mine communications system.
2. Sarah's plan provides a separate intake escapeway that will be isolated from the belt conveyor entries. The isolated intake escapeway will be maintained at a higher ventilation pressure than the belt and common entries.
3. Sarah's plan provides for the belt and common entries to serve as an alternate intake escapeway.
4. There are significant health and safety benefits associated with allowing entries in common with the belt entry. Safer access is provided to workers performing repair and maintenance work in the belt entry. Improved visual safety inspections are facilitated by open crosscuts.
This approval is limited to the use of entries in common with the belt entry. All other terms and requirements of section 242(c) shall remain in effect. Continued authorization for operation under the approval is contingent upon compliance with the measures described in Sarah Mine's plan and the conditions stated in the Department's approval. The conditions are:
1. If a condition that causes higher pressure to develop in the common entries than the intake escapeway cannot practicably be corrected, the mine operator shall notify the Department of the condition, the specific cause, area affected, and the steps that will be taken to maintain the pressure in the belt and common entries at the lowest attainable level.
2. Operation, maintenance and calibration of the point CO (carbon monoxide) monitoring system shall comply with the manufacturer's recommendation and DEP equipment approval number BOTE 1712-98.
3. Sarah Resources, Inc. shall comply with the requirements of the most currently approved Mine Safety and Health Administration's (MSHA) Fire Fighting and Evacuation Plan.
4. Notification of DEP District Mine Inspector when the point CO monitoring system has been installed.
The Bureau of Deep Mine Safety (BDMS) has approved Rosebud Mining Company's request for a variance from the requirements of section 242(c) of the Pennsylvania Bituminous Coal Mine Act at the Tracy Lynne Mine. This notification contains a summary of this request. A complete copy of the variance request may be obtained from Allison Gaida by calling (724) 439-7469 or from the BDMS web site at http://www.dep.state.pa.us/dep/deputate/minres/dms/dms.htm.
Summary of the request: Rosebud Mining Company requested a variance from section 242(c) of the Pennsylvania Bituminous Coal Mine Act to allow for the common ventilation of belt conveyor entry with other entries at the Tracy Lynne Mine. The proposal accords protections to persons and property substantially equal to or greater than the requirements of section 242(c).
The basis for the Bureau's approval is summarized as follows:
1. Tracy Lynne's plan provides for an advanced fire detection and control system consisting of carbon monoxide (CO) monitors, thermal detectors and a fire suppression system.
2. Tracy Lynne's plan provides a separate intake escapeway that will be isolated from the belt conveyor entries. The isolated intake escapeway will be maintained at a higher ventilation pressure than the belt and common entries.
3. Tracy Lynne's plan provides for the belt and common entries to serve as an alternate intake escapeway.
4. There are significant health and safety benefits associated with allowing entries in common with the belt entry. Safer access is provided to workers performing repair and maintenance work in the belt entry. Improved visual safety inspections are facilitated by open crosscuts.

All other terms and requirements of section 242(c) shall remain in effect. This approval applies to all areas developed after May 20, 1998. Continued authorization for operation under the approval is contingent upon compliance with the measures described in Tracy Lynne's plan and the following conditions:
1. Operation, maintenance and calibration of the point CO monitor system shall comply with the manufacturer's recommendation and DEP equipment approval number BOTE 1712-98.
2. At all times, Rosebud Mining Company shall comply with the requirements of the Mine Safety and Health Administration's (MSHA) Fire Fighting and Evacuation Plan.
3. Notification of DEP District Mine Inspector when the point CO monitor system has been installed.
