NOTES:

(i) Violations that are likely to cause reasonably serious injury are labeled “S&S” – significant and substantial. Penalties for S&S violations are based on a formula that considers six factors: 1) history of previous violations; 2) size of operator’s business; 3) any negligence by the operator; 4) gravity of the violation; 5) the operator’s good faith in trying to correct the violation promptly; and 6) effect of the penalty on the operator’s ability to stay in business. These factors are determined from the inspector’s findings, MSHA records, and information supplied by the operator.

(ii) Alvord and Beckett operations were suspended in 2011 and are deemed “abandoned” for reporting purposes under Mine Safety and Health Act.
