Introduction
This memorandum summarizes the Office of Accountability audit of the subject mines and field office. Audit subjects included MSHA supervisory and managerial oversight, MSHA field activities, level of enforcement, Field Activity Reviews (FARs), Accompanied Activities, mine plans, and practices at the mine. The audit was conducted during the week by Arlie A. Webb, Jerry Kissell, and Billy Randolph. and issues requiring attention are included in this audit report. Overview

Areas of the mine examined during this audit included mine office, record books, required postings, pits, highwalls, highwall drill, front end loaders, excavators, haul trucks, haul roads, company pick-up trucks, berms, explosive storage magazines, substations and electrical installations, fuel storage, and the shopI supply area. Inspection activities also covered the plants, including breakers, sizing screens, crushers, surface conveyor belts and elevated conveyor belts.

Overall, the S&S rate for the Peru field office and the North Central District as a whole were considerably lower than the national average. Fiscal Year 2008 2009 Field Office 12.8% 17.5% North Central District 17.1% 17.3% National A vg. 22.0% 23.0%
However, enforcement actions taken at the subject mines during this audit appeared consistent with national policy and were appropriate for the nature of the violations observed. Time and Activity Comparison Time distribution is generally good, although time in the "Other" category needs to be reduced. Consideration should be given to issuing citations and orders while on-site (as discussed later in this report) to increase inspector on-site time and provide a greater degree of protection to the miners.

Audit Results

The audit revealed positive findings in several categories, including the following: 1. Inspectors conducted inspection activities during the audits in a professional manner at all times. 2. Inspection work during the audits was highly commendable regarding on-site activities and determination of gravity, S&S, number of persons affected, and the proper use of enforcement tools. 3. Field Office Supervisor is conducting mine visits. 4. FAR/ AA and Second Level Review documentation well documented. The audit also revealed issues in several categories that require corrective actions, including the following: 1. Conditions observed and citations issued during this audit indicate that previous inspections were neither complete or thorough at the three mines audited. (FO/District) See Attachments B & D 2. Evaluations of S&S, gravity, negligence, and number of persons affected during past inspections did not appear commensurate with the type of violations cited. (FO)(District) [See attachment C)] 3. There was insufficient enforcement focus during past inspections regarding guarding. (FO) [ 20 Citations issued at the three operations for guarding hazards - See Attachment B] insufficient enforcement focus during past inspections.

Peer Reviews did not contain means for follow-up and evaluation of the effectiveness of corrective actions. (HQ)(District) 6. Inspection site time: On-site observations, coupled with analysis of inspection data, also indicate a chronic problem with inspections and enforcement. With the e (b) (6) - ·f the E01..ctions conducted during this accountability audit xc (b) (6) (Event , (Event ), and the EOl inspection conducted during the second half of FY 2008 (Event 1001512), the number of hours spent on-site does not appear sufficient to(b) (6) inspection. A total of 31.5 inspection hours was charged at t h during the Accountability Audit with only 3 inspection hours in FY 2007 and 21 inspection hours in FY 2008. [Attachment E] 7. Citations issued in error have been deleted from the system rather than issuing subsequent actions [vacates]. [Citation and Order Writing Handbooks states
"When using the IPAL system, a citation or order that is issued in error must be vacated or
3
modified by using Form 7000-3a. "] [Since 2006, the NC District has 209 issuances that
have been deleted] the deletions were completed at the district office. Interview with the district manager verified that there were citations deleted at the district level.
The attached checklist addresses the findings of the audit. Positive issues as well as issues requiring action are covered in detail in the checklist.

Supervisors documented area's of deficiencies in FAR's and AA' s, as well as providing positive feedback to inspectors. A concern exists that the supervisor's had not reviewed individual performance factors for enforcement levels prior to the accompanied activity. This would be evidenced by the enforcement levels of the field office as compared to conditions observed during the audits. There were no post-accompanied activity evaluation follow-up to determine if individuals had made the anticipated corrections identified in FARS, AA' s and 2nd level reviews.

Supervisory oversight of inspection times is generally good, with the exception of time spent in the "Other" category, which is higher than the national average.
Recommendation - Metal Non Metal districts should consider having inspection personnel issue citations while on-site ("reasonable promptness"). This would reduce "other" time and increase inspector presence on-site. Issuin_g_ citations while on-site would also provide the operator with

This issue appears to be common to all Metal/Nonmetal districts and should be addressed at the headquarters level. Metal/Nonmetal does not have a uniform process for accurately tracking supervisory/ managerial mine visits. Each district has its own method for tracking these visits, and some districts track more information than others.
Recommendation - Metal/Nonmetal should adopt the same type of spreadsheet used by coal to adequately document supervisory and managerial mine visits.

There were no danger signs posted at the PP2 motor contro center (MCC) to warn employees of electrical hazards. The MCC is a new installation and has only been in service for 2 weeks. Miners are in the area to bag material approximately 50 feet away from the MCC. Employees at the mine site were exposed to the possibility of injury, through the lack of warning signs to alert personal about the electrical installations.

The Electrical Parts Storage trailer was not being maintained in a orderly condition. The trailer was full of electrical supplies on the walking surface. Cable spools, a barrel, electrical boxes, electrical cables and a pipe bender were placed along the walking path. These items create a trip hazard in the limited space of the trailer. The trailer is not access on a regular basis by miners'making an accident unlikely. Should a miner fall it may result in lacerations, contusions and/or broken bone injuries.

Hydrostatic testing was not provided within the previous 12 years for the 5 pound ABC type fire extinguisher mounted on the GMC company #2801 service truck parked in the maintenance shop (manufactures date on label indicating 1993). The lack of verifying fire extinguisher cylinder integrity through hydrostatic testing can present user to laceration type injuries upon cylinder failure. The fire extinguisher visually appeared to be in good condition with no signs of rust on cylinder. A monthly visual exam and an annual exam on March of 2007 had been done and documented.

The unaftended Ford F150 pick-up truck (license plate # ET9728) was parked on a grade outside of the brake set, and the wheels were not chocked or turned into a bank or rib. Should the truck move unexpected and hit a miner it in sprains, strains, contusions, lacerations and/or bone crushing injuries. The truck was equipped with an automatic that was in the park position and the tested and functioning park brake was set.
