Statement of Work Mini-Trac Permissible Diesel Tractor Background: The Federal mine Safety and health Act of 1977, Public Law 91-173 states under Sec.502. (a) Training and education: that MSHA shall expand programs for the education and training of operators and agents thereof, and miners. Also under 502 (c) (1), The National mine Health and Safety Academy shall be maintained as an agency of the Department and is responsible for the training of mine safety and health inspectors under section 505 of the Act. It is also stated that training shall be conducted by the Academy in accordance with curriculum needs and assignment of instruction personnel established by the user.

Introduction: The purchase of a permissible diesel machine will enhance training conducted at the National Mine Academy. This machine will provide training for all levels of inspectors (entry level, journeymen inspectors and supervisors). The equipment can also be used to train personnel from MSHA’s Technical Support Division and the Coal industry.

In-depth hands-on training on proper inspection procedures cannot be accomplished without having the equipment present at the training facility. Many questions can be easily answered by the use of this machine including the proper methods to check exhaust gases, and exhaust temperature as required by the inspection procedure handbook. The proper inspection of permissible equipment is a vital part in the prevention of fires and explosions in underground coal mines.

The permissible diesel equipment can be either new or rebuilt.
