Petitions for Modification

The following parties have filed

petitions to modify the application of

mandatory safety standards under

section 101(c) of the Federal Mine

Safety and Health Act of 1977.

1. Tanoma Mining Company

[Docket No. M–97–82–C]

Tanoma Mining Company, 1809

Chestnut Avenue, P.O. Box 25,

Barnesboro, Pennsylvania 15714 has

filed a petition to modify the

application of 30 CFR 75.1700 (oil and

gas wells) to its Tanoma Mine (I.D. No.

36–06967) located in Indiana County,

Pennsylvania. The petitioner proposes

to plug and mine through oil and gas

wells. The petitioner asserts that the

proposed alternative method would

provide at least the same measure of

protection as would the mandatory

standard.

2. Eastern Associated Coal Corp.

[Docket No. M–97–83–C]

Eastern Associated Coal Corp., P.O.

Box 1233, Charleston, West Virginia

25324 has filed a petition to modify the

application of 30 CFR 75.352 (return air

courses) to its Harris No. 1/Rocklick

Coal Handling Facility (I.D. No. 46–

08610) located in Boone County, West

Virginia. The petitioner proposes to

develop a coal handling facility (tunnel)

between two (2) existing preparation

plants; Harris Preparation Plant, MSHA

46–03135, WVDEP 0–72–82, and the

Rocklick Preparation Plant, MSHA 46–

06448, WVDEP 0–5091–86. The coal

handling facility would be developed by

excavation of a coal seam 24–36 inches

in thickness and by excavating 48–60

inches of rock, with the length of the

tunnel at approximately 10,700 feet. The

excavation would only be for a short

term project, and the projected

construction life twelve (12) to eighteen

(18) months, with no coal removal other

than the projected entries, which would

serve only as a coal handling facility

and not to produce coal. The petitioner

proposes to mine with a two-entry

system with the conveyor haulageway

being located in the return air course as

only one entry is required to facilitate

the coal handling facility conveyor belt.

The petitioner proposes to install a

carbon monoxide monitoring system as

an early warning fire detection system

in the belt entry and primary escapeway

of all two-entry development. The

petitioner asserts that the proposed

alternative method would provide at

least the same measure of protection as

would the mandatory standard.

3. Turris Coal Company

[Docket No. M–97–84–C]

Turris Coal Company, P.O. Box 21,

Elkhart, Illinois 62634 has filed a

petition to modify the application of 30

CFR 75.350 (air course and belt haulage

entries) to its Elkhart Mine (I.D. No. 11–

02664) located in Logan County,

Illinois. The petitioner proposes to use

intake air coming from belt haulage

entries to ventilate workings. The

petitioner proposes to install a carbon

monoxide monitoring system as an early

warning system along belt haulage

entries. The petitioner asserts that its

ability to meet regulatory volume and

control requirements at the working face

will be enhanced by the approval of this

requested modification.

4. H & H Enterprises, Inc.

[Docket No. M–97–85–C]

H & H Enterprises, Inc., P.O. Box 35,

Brownsville, Pennsylvania 15417 has

filed a petition to modify the

application of 30 CFR 75.1103–4

(automatic fire sensor and warning

device system; installation; minimum

requirements) to its Meadow Run Mine

(I.D. No. 36–07987) located in Green

County, Pennsylvania. The petitioner

proposes to use a CO monitoring system

instead of the existing point-type heat

sensors. The petitioner proposes to

install a low-level carbon monoxide

detection system as an early warning

fire detection system in all belt entries

where the system identifies the belt

flight; to locate the monitoring devices

so that the air is monitored at each belt

drive and tailpiece, and at intervals not

to exceed 1,000 feet along each

conveyor belt entry, except as provided

in Item No. 1(c) and Item No. 10 of this

petition; and to submit proposed

revisions of its approved part 48

training plan to the District Manager

that would include initial and refresher

training regarding compliance with the

conditions in the Proposed Decision and

Order. The petitioner asserts that the

proposed alternative method would

provide at least the same measure of

protection as would the mandatory

standard.

5. H & H Enterprises, Inc.

[Docket No. M–97–86–C]

H & H Enterprises, Inc., P.O. Box 35,

Brownsville, Pennsylvania 15417 has

filed a petition to modify the

application of 30 CFR 75.350 (air

courses and belt haulage entries) to its

Meadow Run Mine (I.D. No. 36–07987)

located in Green County, Pennsylvania.

The petitioner proposes to use a CO

monitoring system instead of the

existing point-type heat senors. The

petitioner proposes to install a low-level

carbon monoxide monitoring system as

an early warning fire detection system

in all belt entries where the system

identifies the belt flight; to locate the

monitoring devices so that the air is

monitored at each belt drive and

tailpiece, and at the intervals not to

exceed 1,000 feet along each conveyor

belt entry, except as provided in Item

No. 1(c) and Item No. 10 of this petition;

and to submit proposed revisions of its

part 48 training plan to the District

Manager that would include initial and

refresher training regarding compliance

with the conditions specified by the

Proposed Decision and Order. The

petitioner asserts that the proposed

alternative method would provide at

least the same measure of protection as

would the mandatory standard.
