This book was released on 2013-06-26 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coal mine disasters in the United States are relatively rare events; many of the roughly 50,000 miners underground will never have to evacuate a mine in an emergency during their careers. However, for those that do, the consequences have the potential to be devastating. U.S. mine safety practices have received increased attention in recent years because of the highly publicized coal mine disasters in 2006 and 2010. Investigations have centered on understanding both how to prevent or mitigate emergencies and what capabilities are needed by miners to self-escape to a place of safety successfully. This report focuses on the latter - the preparations for self-escape. In the wake of 2006 disasters, the U.S. Congress passed the Mine Improvement and New Emergency Response Act of 2006 (MINER Act), which was designed to strengthen existing mine safety regulations and set forth new measures aimed at improving accident preparedness and emergency response in underground coal mines. Since that time, the efforts of the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) and the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) have contributed to safety improvements in the mining industry. However, the Upper Big Branch mine explosion in 2010 served as a reminder to remain ever vigilant on improving the prevention of mine disasters and preparations to help miners survive in the event of emergencies. This study was set in the context of human-systems integration (HSI), a systems approach that examines the interaction of people, tasks, and equipment and technology in the pursuit of a goal. It recognizes this interaction occurs within, and is influenced by, the broader environmental context. A key premise of human-systems integration is that much important information is lost when the various tasks within a system are considered individually or in isolation rather than in interaction with the whole system. Improving Self-Escape from Underground Coal Mines, the task of self-escape is part of the mine safety system.

Book Synopsis Strategies for Escape and Rescue from Underground Coal Mines by : Danrick W. Alexander
Download or read book Strategies for Escape and Rescue from Underground Coal Mines written by Danrick W. Alexander and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Section 2 of the Mine Improvement and New Emergency Response Act of 2006 (2006 MINER Act), Public Law 109-236, [MINER Act 2006] directed operators of underground coal mines to improve accident preparedness and response. This report summarizes the findings of research conducted by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) between December 2007 and March 2009 to identify the attributes of an improved escape and rescue system. This report focuses on specific guidelines for escape and rescue from underground coal mines during fire and explosion incidents and contains an investigation of United States and worldwide mine practices. The basic elements of a mine emergency response system (escape, rescue, and incident command) are addressed. Further, knowledge gaps, training, human behavior, and technology challenges are also identified. This report presents a strategy of self-escape and safe-rescue including incident command as an integrated system with consideration given to U.S. underground coal mine demographics. The findings are intended to facilitate the evolution of all miners' capabilities and support institutions so that they will have a greater chance of successfully managing abnormal incidents without injury or fatalities.

This book was released on 1950 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ever-present danger of mine fires and the possibility of hazardous atmospheric conditions in underground mines make a well-equipped mine rescue station a valuable asset to any mining district. Rescue equipment without proper maintenance provides only false security, because neglect may make apparatus unfit for use in an emergency. Promptness in fighting mine fires is important; frequently the first 30 minutes of action are worth many hours later. Likewise, the equipment will be of little value if enough men trained in its use are not readily available. This circular points out how such protection has been provided in an Arizona mining district by establishing a well-organized, adequately equipped, central mine rescue station.

Book Synopsis Fire and Rescue Service operational guidance - incidents in tunnels and underground structures by : Great Britain: Department for Communities and Local Government
Download or read book Fire and Rescue Service operational guidance - incidents in tunnels and underground structures written by Great Britain: Department for Communities and Local Government and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2012-04-27 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication presents a framework for a safe system of work for operations at incidents involving tunnels and underground structures. It provides a robust yet flexible insight that can be adapted to the nature, scale and requirements of the incident. Incidents involving tunnels and underground structures may place significant demands on local fire and rescue services and have often required a national co-ordinated response from across the country. This type of incident may generate intense media attention where the operations of the emergency services are rigorously scrutinised. Whilst much of this attention is approving it will invariably focus on the preparedness of the emergency services and their operational effectiveness.

This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction: Major injury incidents in underground metalliferous and mineral mines are rare, but if e.g. a major fire would occur it is the emergency medical service together with the mining company and rescue service who perform the rescue operation. Therefore it is important to develop safe and efficient rescue operation procedures for all the organizations involved, especially the emergency medical service personnel.Aim: Examine the emergency medical service personnelu2019s perceptions and experiences regarding underground mining incidents.Method: Individual interviews were performed with 13 Swedish emergency medical service personnel (EMS). The interviews were transcribed verbatim and analyzed with qualitative content analysis.Results: The theme u201cproviding the same care in a difficult environmentu201d emerged. Depending on the type of incident the EMS personnel considered that the injured mining workers could be cared for either outside or in the mine in order to access and care for the injured mining workers as quickly as possible. The EMS personnel mentioned that it was difficult to make the decision if they should enter the mine or not due to uncertainty of their safety. They also considered that it could be harder to accomplish the same level of care as in other incidents due to the difficult environment. As they in some instances cannot drive their ambulance vehicles into the mine they have to prioritize which equipment to bring as well as consider how to transport the patients.Discussion: The results identify some of the difficulties the EMS find challenging. Therefore the results could be used in finding solutions and making the EMS prepared for effective and timely response for injured in underground mines.

Book excerpt: In 2006, several mining tragedies led Congress to pass the Mine Improvement and New Emergency Response Act of 2006 (MINER Act). It requires underground coal mine operators to develop emergency response plans that contain several components designed to improve accident preparedness and response, including providing a refuge of air to miners trapped underground after an accident and wireless commun. systems. The Mine Safety and Health Admin. (MSHA) is responsible for approving the plans and ensuring their implementation. This report examines: (1) the effectiveness of the approval process; (2) the status of implementation of the plans; and (3) MSHA¿s efforts to enforce and oversee implementations. Illustrations.
