Action Table
In collaboration with the Coal Diesel Partnership and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, MSHA formed the Diesel Issue Resolution Team at MSHA's Approval and Certification Center (A&CC). Major technical issues affecting the implementation of Diesel Particulate Matter (DPM) filtration technology on both permissible and non-permissible vehicles in underground coal mines were identified. The following Action Table provides the Coal Mining Community with background information on specific diesel issues and actions taken by MSHA to resolve them.

NIOSH Listserve
A list-server has been established by the diesel team at NIOSH, Pittsburgh in response to the expressed and obvious need for a means to disseminate and share information and experiences concerning the application of available technologies for the reduction of miner exposures to diesel particulate matter and gaseous emissions in underground mines.

A single page diesel inventory sheet that complies with the requirements of 72.520
- Single Page
Diesel Inventory Sheet - (PDF)
Note: This is NOT a required form but is provided to assist mine operators. This form is especially appropriate for those operations with very limited numbers of diesel equipment as each piece of diesel equipment requires a separate sheet.
