Title: Hazard Communication
Abstract: Today's complex mining environment subjects miners to many hazards such as from wastes burned as fuel supplements at cement kilns and from the many chemicals brought onto mine property. The rule as proposed will provide miners with the means to receive necessary information on the hazards of chemicals to which they are exposed and the actions necessary to protect them from such hazards. It will be consistent with OSHA's rule to the extent appropriate.
