MSHA Reopens Comment Period for High-Voltage Longwall Equipment Rulemaking

The Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) has reopened the comment period for its proposed rule on high-voltage longwall equipment, allowing interested parties to provide feedback on the updated Preliminary Regulatory Impact and Flexibility Analysis (PRIA). The updated PRIA assesses the economic impact of the proposed rule on small manufacturers and mines, concluding that it would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of these entities.
