I deal with MSHA all the time as a contractor,you wouldn't believe the absolute absurdities they make people do and what the will fine them for.
Safety is all well and good and needs to be practiced,but they take things beyond what is sensible.
They will inspect a mine site,and must walk away with some kind of citation,they are told this,they must orders from higher up.Personally told this my an inspector,and have heard it from many others in the gravel and aggregate business.
The paper work is extensive and burdensome. Then you ad on annual redundant training,ya its like throwing out an anchor while your trying to get work done.
