Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 156 / Tuesday, August 17, 2021 / Notices for hazardous conditions at the projected location of the well, notify the District Manager, and take reasonable measures to locate the well, including visual observation/inspection or through survey data. Mining may resume if the well is located and no hazardous conditions exist. If the well cannot be located, the mine operator shall work with District Manager to resolve any issues before mining resumes.
18 The provisions of this petition do not impair the authority of representatives of MSHA to interrupt or halt the well intersection and to issue a withdrawal order when they deem it necessary for the safety of the miners.
MSHA may order an interruption or cessation of the well intersection and/or a withdrawal of personnel by issuing either a verbal or written order to that effect to a representative of the mine operator. Operations in the affected area of the mine may not resume until a representative of MSHA permits resumption. The mine operator and miners shall comply with verbal or written MSHA orders immediately. All verbal orders shall be committed to writing within a reasonable time as conditions permit.
19 A copy of the decision and order shall be maintained at the mine and available to the miners.
20 If the well is not plugged to the total depth of all minable coal seams identified in the core hole logs, any coal seams beneath the lowest plug will remain subject to the barrier requirements of 30 CFR 75.1700, should those coal seams be developed in the future.
21 All necessary safety precautions and safe practices according to Industry Standards and required by MSHA
regulations and State regulatory agencies having jurisdiction over the plugging site will be followed to provide the upmost protection to the miners involved in the process.
22 All miners involved in the plugging or re-plugging operations will be trained on the contents of the decision and order prior to starting the process, and a copy of the decision and order will be posted at the well site until the plugging or re-plugging has been completed.
23 Mechanical bridge plugs should incorporate the best available technologies that are either required or recognized by the State regulatory agency and/or oil and gas industry.
24 Within 30 days after the decision and order becomes final, the mine operator shall submit proposed revisions for its approved 30 CFR part 48 training plan to the District Manager.

These proposed revisions shall include initial and refresher training on compliance with the terms and conditions stated in the decision and order. The mine operator shall provide all miners involved in well intersection with training on the requirements of the decision and order prior to mining within 150 feet of the well intended to be mined through.
25 The responsible person required under 30 CFR 75.1501 Emergency evacuations is responsible for well intersection emergencies. The well intersection procedures should be reviewed by the responsible person prior to any planned intersection.
26 Within 30 days after the decision and order becomes final, the mine operator shall submit proposed revisions for its approved mine emergency evacuation and firefighting program of instruction required under 30 CFR 75.1502. The mine operator will revise the program of instruction to include the hazards and evacuation procedures to be used for well intersections. All underground miners will be trained in this revised plan within 30 days of submittal.
The petitioner asserts that the alternate method proposed will at all times guarantee no less than the same measure of protection afforded the miners under the mandatory standard.
