04. Emergency Procedures

We may just need to get stock photos for sure here as even if we have the originals, they are a very short and thus narrow orientation with little options in a new layout.

STONY

• Describe typical emergency situations, warnings and procedures
  Understand mine evacuation routes and reporting locations
  Describe typical fire fighting equipment and methods
  Explain typical reporting procedures for all mine emergencies

I'm asking bc I don't know, is there anything commonly used to identify a person in charge? Is that shown in the picture?

ROCKY

• Describe typical emergency situations, warnings and procedures
  Understand mine evacuation routes and reporting locations
  Describe typical fire fighting equipment and methods
  Explain typical reporting procedures for all mine emergencies

ROCKY

• First make sure the scene is safe
  Initiate emergency procedures
  A person from the mine should help route emergency vehicles to the injured person

ROCKY

• Initiate mine emergency procedures

• Fight the fire (if it can be done safely)

Are these depicting current extinguishers and signs, currently used places to keep extinguishers (are there telephone poles near mines?), do we need a photo of the fire hose or other things mentioned?

ROCKY

Does this reflect what a current procedure might look like? Can we get a full document to scan so that it's larger?

If the document shown should be entered as text then we need that text

ROCKY

• Follow company procedures to notify others of any danger

One bullet of "communication!" is not sufficient here. The voice over clearly outlines what "good communication" is and there are plenty of opportunities to bullet out distinct points form the voice over.

ROCKY

• Communication!

Is the document shown a currently example of a compliant reporting form? Can we have the actual form to scan and use as an image for max size?

One bullet of "communication!" is not sufficient here. The voice over clearly outlines what "good communication" is and there are plenty of opportunities to bullet out distinct points form the voice over.

ROCKY

• Damage must be assessed and repaired before equipment can be used again

• All incidents must be reported using specific reporting procedures at the mine

Stoney says plenty that are good overall points for bullets on this slide.

STONEY

Need either larger image of the plan or the original doc file for max size

Rocky says plenty that are good overall points for bullets on this slide.

ROCKY

Slide shows at least one less bullet then listed by voice over.

ROCKY

• Everyone at the mine site must be accounted for in an emergency

• If you don't report during an incident extreme measures may be undertaken to rescue you

ROCKY

ROCKY

• Report all incidents

• Injury

• Fire

• Unsafe Conditions

• Equipment Damage

This is just a stylistic comment about the clock and the rainbow

Where's the MSHA hotline number?
What about the final voice over bullet that's missing about non-life threatening injuries and reporting requirements for those? (maybe a sep slide?)

ROCKY

• MSHA requires a mine operator to contact MSHA without delay and within 15 minutes of when an operator knows, or should know, that an indecent has occurred.

• Civil penalty of between $5,000 and $70,000 if an operator fails to notify MSHA within 15 minutes of:

• Death

• Injury or entrapment with reasonable potential to cause death

• An unplanned fire that can't be extinguished within 30 minutes

Is this a current form example and can we have an original file for max size?

"Setch of the scene" is missing from bullets though said in voiceover

ROCKY

• Complete a form 7000-1 for each accident, occupational injury or occupational illness at the mine

• Date and Time

• Description of Site

• Explanation and Causes

• Name, occupation and experience of miners involved

• Steps taken to prevent further occurrences

• Send to MSHA within 10 working days

bullets skip over the sorts of things that can cause point awarding

ROCKY

• MSHA can assess civil penalties for violations of mandatory health and safety standards

• As high as $70,000 for each offense

• Points assigned using defined criteria

• Total points converted to a dollar amount

• If the mine operator fails to correct the violation within the required time period, the mine can be assessed a penalty of up to $7,500 for each day that the failure continues

ROCKY

• Good housekeeping
  Careful inspection of equipment
  Washing equipment
  Training
  Efficient communication
  Specific firefighting equipment based on the hazards at the mine

So this is really a bunch of slides that I'm writing as one but really there's the first image and then the interactive quiz. So what I'm writing as bullet points are really intra-lesson quiz items to match up real life examples with which fire component is being addressed to put out the fire.

ROCKY

• Fuel, heat and oxygen are the required components to start a fire. One of these must be removed to put out a fire.

• Oxygen:
  All flammables should be stored in tightly closed containers
  Put the pan lid on a grease fire in the kitchen
  Fire extinguishers should be used for small fires

• Heat:
  Don't overload the circuits
  Never smoke around vapors from solvents or other flammable liquids
  Take appropriate precautions when welding
  Electrical equipment should be kept in good repair to prevent sparking

• Fuel:
  Make sure your work area is well ventilated
  The workplace should be clean and free of dust and debris

voice over give specific points on putting out the fire.
neither voice over nor bullet points are given as to what is being inspected on the extinguisher

ROCKY

The bullets miss stuff said about what makes a classification (what feeds it and puts it out) and also all the stuff about the decisions to fight or fly

Instructor on the video

• "A" - Ash
  Paper, wood, cloth
  Remove the heat source

• "B" - Boil
  Liquids, gas, diesel fuel
  Remove the fuel/vapors

• "C" - Current
  Electrical cables and materials

• "D" - Ding
  Metals: magnesium, titanium, potassium, sodium
  Requires a special fire extinguisher

ROCKY

• MSHA requires fire extinguishers to be of the type that is consistent with the fire hazards present

ROCKY

• PASS Method:
  "P" - Pull
  "A" - Aim
  "S" - Squeeze
  "S" - Sweep
