19. METAL/NONMETAL MINE FATALITY - On June 18, 2014, a 41-year- old production supervisor with 19 years of mining experience was killed at a sand and gravel mine. The victim and two contract workers were attempting to remove an impeller that was seized onto the threaded shaft of a centrifugal pump. After several failed attempts to unscrew the impeller, heat from a torch was applied to the enclosed hub on the impeller. While applying heat, the hub exploded and metal fragments struck the victim.

20. Citation No. 8638723--issued under the provisions of Section 104(d)(1) citation of the Mine Act for a violation of 30 CFR 56.14205: On June 18, 2014 a fatal accident occurred when a miner was struck by metal fragments of an impeller hub. The victim, a production supervisor, and two contract miners were working to remove an impeller from slurry pump. The impeller was seized onto the threaded shaft. While performing maintenance on the machine, the victim and two contract miners applied heat from a torch to the impeller hub, and it exploded. Management engaged in aggravated conduct constituting more than ordinary negligence by disregarding the manufacturer's warnings not to apply heat to the impeller hub. This is an unwarrantable failure to comply with a mandatory safety standard. This violation is an unwarrantable failure to comply with a mandatory standard. Order No. 8638724--issued under the provisions of Section 104(d)(1) order of the Mine Act for a violation of 30 CFR 46.7(a): Task training was not provided for the task of removing the impeller on slurry pumps. The victim and contractor miners were working to remove an impeller from a slurry pump which was seized onto the threaded shaft, when heat from the torch was applied the impeller exploded, killing the Production Supervisor. Management engaged in aggravated conduct constituting more than ordinary negligence by not providing task training for this task. This is an unwarrantable failure to comply with a mandatory safety standard. This violation is an unwarrantable failure to comply with a mandatory standard.

21. — An operator committed an S&S and “unwarrantable” violation of §48.7(c) where it failed to provide adequate task training to an inexperienced continuous miner helper who was killed when he was struck in the head by the continuous miner’s tail boom. The individual who trained the miner provided only about 30 minutes of training, failed to cover all of the areas in the company’s training plan, and failed to use the machine manufacturer’s service bulletin. The violation was S&S because the inadequate training contributed to the fatal accident. The accident investigation turned up 13 additional alleged training violations which indicated an “indifference” at the mine to training. A $32,000 penalty was assessed. White Oak Mining & Construction Co., Docket Nos. WEST 96- 235, 19 FMSHRC 1414 (Aug. 13, 1997), 4 MSHN 473 (Sept. 5, 1997) (ALJ Hodgdon).

22. A citation alleging that a cement producer violated Part 46 new task training requirements in a case in which two workers were injured by a pressurized hose was vacated. MSHA's argument that the occurrence of the accident meant that the miners were inadequately trained to perform the task was rejected. MSHA's investigator testified that one of the injured workers told him that he did not know where the pressure relief valves were located. But the miner's statement was discounted as a "sickbed conversation" because he was "suffering from traumatic shock and effects of pain medication." The miner's testimony as to his training history was corroborated by his supervisor and was credited. It was found that the accident occurred from "carelessness or inattention," not inadequate training.
