[ Details ]

I n response to more detail on my responsibilities at the mine. I was a production supervisor

and had to inspect all working areas of the mine. I had to do safety interactions or one on

one’s with employees in their working environments. We had 3 coal crushers one load-out

t hat had to be inspected and tested for all gases. There was also one rock crusher that I

looked at every shift. I inspected all mining roads for with and grade and to make sure the

berms were up to standards. I inspected the top and bottom of all high-walls we were

working under and the same with spoil banks. I had to look at all dozer projects and insure

t he work was being done safe. I t was important that material being pushed was not

creating hazards for others working in the area. The drill area had to be inspected so as i t

was properly demarcated and there was no explosives left unattended. I would have to clear

out personnel and block for coal and overburden shots. The inspection included 2 shovels 1

excavator and 3 big loaders and a f leet of 15 haul t rucks. All loading and dumping areas

were inspected for hazards. If a hazard was found I would make the necessary corrections to

m itigate the hazard. I would start every shift off with a safety meeting and tell people about

t he potential hazards we could come across in the shift. I was involved in safety

i mprovements and the safety team at the mine. We would do a lot of spot inspections and

safety audits. I was also responsible for collecting information and filling out accident

reports. Every incident was reported. I was responsible for up to 60 people any given shift

and would observe to make sure they were following safety procedures. If one was not I

would have an interaction to stress the importance of not taking short cuts.

In 1995 I took and passed the M HSA instructor course and received a certification. I then

helped put together and delivered experienced miner t raining at ColoWyo, Navajo M ine in

New Mexico, and CNCC Community College. I was an instructor at CNCC for 3 years.

E nvironmental aspects were as important as safety. All employees/equipment were

tested for noise and dust. Each employee received a lung test each year. All

necessary employees were fi t tested for respirators on a yearly basis. All fall

p rotection was inspected once a year. All spills were properly cleaned up and there

was MSDS sheets on everything used at the mine. I helped do t raining for all

m iners on environmental aspects. I would make out spill reports to report any spills

t hat may have occurred on any given shift. There were standards set for time for

exposure, like noise in a dragline for example. I was to make sure these restrictions

were being followed. This includes confined space and testing for gasses. Dust and

weather affected the environment and caused hazards. I would monitor dust and

t ake proper measures to keep i t safe using water t rucks and systems in the drills

and crushers. I would order employees to place crushed rock on the used haul roads

w hen necessary. I would reinspect all working areas after each rain/snow freeze or

t haw. When there were loaded coal or overburden shots and lightning was in the

a rea I would clear out mining personnel. I would make sure that the team and I

would be on the same page as the engineers on all reclamation work. We would

a lways allow extra t ime and discuss hazards that were present in reclamation work.
