Be prepared for the unique challenges of mitigating fire dangers in coal mining and related operations by complying with the latest standard. Incidents at coal mines have accounted for some of the deadliest fires in US history. There are inherent risks to these types of work environments that necessitate specialized requirements to help reduce hazards and maximize safety. NFPAĀ® 120, Standard for Fire Prevention and Control in Coal Mines, 2020 edition, offers the most current industry knowledge and practices for helping to safeguard these operations. The standard applies to better protecting underground bituminous and surface coal mining, processing, conveyance, and storage, loadout locations, and related surface buildings and facilities from fire and explosion. NFPA 120 also provides safety criteria for combustible and flammable liquids and the storage and use of compressed gasses. The 2020 edition delivers the support you need to help protect lives and property and reduce loss from coal mine fires. NFPA 120 is your go-to resource for everything from general fire prevention and protection to manual fire fighting training, including emergency response procedures and operations. Annexes offer explanatory materials and informational references. The revised edition features a variety of changes that can impact your work. New fire safety material is added to Chapter 6 relating to the use of spiral concentrators in coal processing facilities. Additional direction has also been provided regarding best practices during welding and cutting operations within the vicinity of spiral concentrators, including associated Annex A material for further guidance. Help ensure you are up-to-date with cutting-edge criteria for elevating fire safety in coal mining operations.
