Title: ●Occupational Exposure to Coal Mine Dust
Abstract: Upon careful review of the NIOSH criteria document Occupational Exposure to Coal Mine Dust and review of the recommendations of the Advisory Committee on Elimination of Pneumoconiosis Among Coal Mine Workers, MSHA finds that there remains unacceptable risk to miners' health at the current exposure limit for dust in coal mines. Therefore, the Agency is reviewing options for lowering this risk.
