DOL/MSHA RIN: 1219-AB82 Publication ID: Fall 2014 
Title: Fees for Testing, Evaluation and Approval of Mining Products 
Abstract: Mine Safety and Health Administration's (MSHA) Approval and Certification Center was established for the purpose of testing and evaluating mine equipment and mine products to assure compliance with the applicable parts of 30 CFR. However, with advances in technology and computerization, the approval process has become significantly more complex, resulting in more agency resources associated with approvals. MSHA will propose changes to these regulations to reflect changes in the cost of testing and evaluating mine equipment.
