The MSHA has announced that in October 2016 federal inspectors issued 130 citations and one safeguard during special impact inspections that were conducted at 10 coal mines and 5 metal and nonmetal mines.
The special impact inspections were conducted at mines in Alabama, Colorado, Illinois, Kentucky, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia and West Virginia.
