1219-AB98 202210 The Regulatory Plan and the Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 1219 Mine Safety and Health Administration MSHA 1200 Department of Labor DOL Requirements for the Design, Construction, Operation, Maintenance, and Inspection of Mine Impoundments and Dams

The Mine Safety and Health Administration is proposing to create uniform standards for both metal and nonmetal and coal mines, to the extent appropriate, concerning impoundment and dam design, construction, operation, maintenance, and inspection based on technological and other advances made over the recent decades.  Miners, mine operators, and the general public would benefit from this rulemaking since failure of impoundments and dams is a significant hazard for the safety and health of miners and the surrounding communities.
