MSHA PROGRAM POLICY MANUAL VOLUME V "Berm," as used in this Section, means a pile or mound of material at least axle high to the largest piece of equipment using such roadway and as wide at the base as the normal angle of repose provides. Where guardrails are used in lieu of berms, they shall be of substantial construction. The width of the haulage road does not preclude the need for berms or guardrails. 77.1606 Loading and Haulage Equipment; Inspection and Maintenance Mobile loading and haulage equipment shall be inspected by a competent person before such equipment is placed in operation at the beginning of each shift. Any defects found affecting safety during the required inspection shall be recorded and reported to the mine operator. February 2003 (Release V-33) 207
MSHA PROGRAM POLICY MANUAL VOLUME V Subpart R Miscellaneous 77.1702 Arrangements for Emergency Medical Assistance and Transportation for Injured Persons; Reporting Requirements; Posting Requirements Paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section are not to be interpreted to mean that a physician or an ambulance must be present at the mine at all times. These paragraphs do mean, however, that the required services must be arranged for and be readily available. Paragraphs (c) and (d) of this Section have been disapproved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) pursuant to authority under Executive Order 12174 (44 FR 69609) and the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980. Beginning January 1, 1982, no enforcement action shall be taken relative to the reporting requirements of these two paragraphs. Discontinuance of these information reporting requirements does not alter the requirements of paragraphs (a), (b), and (e) of this Section. Operators of surface coal mines still must have arrangements established with a licensed physician, medical service, medical clinic or hospital to provide 24-hour emergency medical assistance and must have arrangements with an ambulance service, or otherwise provide, for 24-hour emergency transportation for any person injured at the mine. Likewise, operators must continue to post at appropriate places at the mine the names, titles, addresses, and telephone numbers of all persons or services available under the arrangements for medical assistance and emergency transportation. The posted information is required to be current and accurate. Where appropriate, inspectors shall make the necessary inquiries to determine the accuracy of the information posted. 77.1710 Protective Clothing; Requirements This Section does not require operators of service vehicles making visits to surface mines or surface work areas of underground mines to wear protective clothing. Paragraph (c) of this Section requires that miners wear gloves whenever they troubleshoot or test energized electric power circuits or electric equipment. Work gloves in good condition are acceptable for troubleshooting or testing energized low- and medium-voltage circuits or equipment. High-voltage gloves, rated at least for the voltage of the circuit, are required for troubleshooting or testing of energized high-voltage circuits or in compartments containing exposed energized high-voltage circuits.
