1219-AC19 202504 Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 1219 Mine Safety and Health Administration MSHA 1200 Department of Labor DOL Training and Retraining of Miners

The Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA)proposes to revise its regulations to eliminate provisions that allow District Managers to require changes in, or additions to, training programs. The current regulations appear to violate the Appointments Clause, by vesting significant regulatory authority in District Managers, and the Administrative Procedure Act (APA), by skipping notice and comment.
