Governing Regulations

Section 115 of the Federal Mine and Safety and Health Act of 1997 (Mine Act) requires mine operators to have a health and safety training program for miners. Training regulations are found in CFR 30 Part 48, which applies to coal, metal, and nonmetal mines. MSHA Part 48 is divided into two subparts. Training requirements for underground miners are in Subpart A, and Subpart B requirements focus on surface miners and miners working at the surface of an underground mine.
