Mine safety regulators give the public another month to comment on new training rules

The US Mine Safety and Health Administration extended the public comment period for a proposed rule on miner training. The public now has an additional 30 days to submit feedback on the new rules.

This document is a procedural update, not a substantive change to policy. It simply gives the public more time to weigh in on proposed changes to how miners are trained and retrained. This extra time could allow more groups to influence the final shape of the rules.
