Legislature passes mine safety bill in West Virginia
West Virginia lawmakers approved Gov. Joe Manchin's mine safety overhaul after 14 miners died this month. The unanimous bill creates a rapid response system, requires emergency communicators and personal tracking devices for underground miners, and sets strict new tracking and stockpiling rules with a February compliance deadline. Manchin said the measure is a start and plans to sign soon as he travels to Washington.
