MSHA

More of the same of that U.S. Mine Safety and Health Administration failure to perform duties.

Federal regulators missed required inspections during the past two quarters at a Logan County mine where a worker was killed Sunday, government records show.

U.S. Mine Safety and Health Administration inspectors had not conducted a complete review of the Mountaineer II Mine since March, agency records show.

Under federal law, MSHA is required to conduct a complete inspection of every underground coal mine once per quarter.

So, how often do inspections get missed?
