United States Fourth Circuit


Consol Buchanan Mining Company v. Secretary of Labor, 15-1321

In a petition for review of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Review Commission's determination that a fatal accident resulted from petitioner's 'unwarrantable failure' to ensure that certain equipment in the mine was maintained in a safe, working condition, the petition is denied over petitioner's arguments that: 1) it lacked notice that hazardous conditions in the mine violated applicable mine safety regulations; and 2) the agency erred in concluding that the company demonstrated aggravated negligence in failing to rectify evident safety concerns.
