Mine Officials Seek To Stop Underground Fatalities
KENTUCKY....
Underground collapses have killed four miners in Kentucky this year. Kentucky Office of Mine Safety and Licensing Director Johnny Greene says asking miners to have a heightened sense of awareness of underground hazards will help bring a stop to these accidents and deaths. Officials want mine safety analysts to go to mines at the beginning of each shift to have face-to-face meetings with coal miners to urge them to be vigilant about potential underground collapses.
