Requirements for Approval of Flame-Resistant Conveyor Belts

The Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) is reopening the rulemaking record to receive additional test data, technical information, and further comment on proposed revisions to its regulations for the approval of flame-resistant conveyor belts for use in underground coal mines. After the close of the public record, some commenters indicated to MSHA that they had obtained or would be obtaining flame test data and technical information which MSHA should review and evaluate. This new information is relevant to MSHA's proposed rule and the Agency's technical assessment of other flammability test data. Also, MSHA has placed the Agency's response to questions from certain commenters in the rulemaking record for public review.
