SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On December 8, 2006, the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) published a final rule on Emergency Mine Evacuation. The majority of the requirements applied to underground coal mines. [71 FR 71430] Section 75.1504(c) of the final rule is a new provision that requires underground coal mine operators to provide annual SCSR expectations training to miners. Expectations training requires the miner to breathe through a realistic SCSR training unit or an equivalent device that provides the sensation of airflow resistance and heat that the miner would experience when using an SCSR during an emergency. When the final rule was published, realistic SCSR training units were not available. MSHA did not require compliance with expectations training until the training units became available. MSHA also stated that the Agency would notify mine operators of the availability of the training units by publishing a notice in the 
                    **Federal Register**
                    . MSHA has determined that realistic SCSR training units are now available. These units are now manufactured by CSE, Ocenco, and Draeger. Mine operators can purchase these units directly from the manufacturers at the addresses below: CSE CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS
