realistic self-contained self-rescue (SCSR) training units to conduct 
annual SCSR expectations training.

DATES: Underground coal mine operators must have a purchase order for 
realistic SCSR training units by April 30, 2007 and conduct this 
component of expectations training within 60 days of receipt of the 
units.

of Standards, Regulations, and Variances, MSHA, 1100 Wilson Boulevard, 
Room 2350, Arlington, Virginia 22209-3939. Ms. Silvey can be reached at

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On December 8, 2006, the Mine Safety and 
Health Administration (MSHA) published a final rule on Emergency Mine 
Evacuation. The majority of the requirements applied to underground 
coal mines. [71 FR 71430] Section 75.1504(c) of the final rule is a new 
provision that requires underground coal mine operators to provide 
annual SCSR expectations training to miners. Expectations training 
requires the miner to breathe through a realistic SCSR training unit or 
an equivalent device that provides the sensation of airflow resistance 
and heat that the miner would experience when using an SCSR during an 
emergency.
    When the final rule was published, realistic SCSR training units 
were not available. MSHA did not require compliance with expectations 
training until the training units became available. MSHA also stated 
that the Agency would notify mine operators of the availability of the 
training units by publishing a notice in the Federal Register.
    MSHA has determined that realistic SCSR training units are now 
available. These units are now manufactured by CSE, Ocenco, and 
Draeger. Mine operators can purchase these units directly from the 
manufacturers at the addresses below:
