The Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA), part of the Labor Department, is removing a provision on electric cap lamps and other electric lamps in underground coal mines from its regulations. MSHA says the provision is duplicative and that removing it will not reduce miner protections. The change is part of a broader Federal Register effort to improve and eliminate regulations.
The Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) is removing outdated diesel particulate matter (DPM) personal exposure limit requirements for underground metal and nonmetal mines from its regulations. The agency says the provisions carry effective dates and exposure limits that no longer apply. The change is a regulatory cleanup that affects mine operators rather than HR software or workforce practices.
The Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA), part of the Labor Department, is removing rules that required permissible electric face equipment in coal seams above the water table.

The change is a Federal Register rule that alters federal mine-safety regulations.
