Senate OKs mine safety bill to move enforcement
The Senate approved a compromise mine safety bill by voice vote. It shifts enforcement from the Interior’s Mining Enforcement Administration to the Labor Department, unifying safety and health programs for coal, mineral, and metal mines and adding new penalties. The Carter administration supports the measure and House approval is expected.
