MSHA Closes Areas Of Massey Mine


WEST VIRGINIA....
Federal regulators are accusing Massey Energy of failing to fix a dozen safety violations at the Upper Big Branch mine. That inspection is separate from criminal and civil investigations of the April 5th explosion. MSHA says 344 citations have been issued since the inspection started July 26th. Wednesday, MSHA issued 12 orders closing areas where violations hadn't been fixed. Massey chief Don Blankenship says the citations are being issued to seek publicity.
