On November 20th, please join AIHA as we visit one of the early sites of US mine safety research to learn about the rich legacy of mining research in (and under) our own backyards. Established in 1910 within the Department of the Interior as a part of the US Bureau of Mines, today, the NIOSH Pittsburgh Mining Research Division performs extensive mining health and safety research, with contributions to mining and beyond.
During this upcoming meeting, NIOSH speakers will lead a guided tour of the historic Experimental Mine, provide an overview of the 2024 MSHA Silica Final Rule, discuss NIOSH Mining research to improve the measurement and control of respirable crystalline silica (RCS) dust in mining, and demonstrate current NIOSH Mining RCS research.
Space is limited to 30 - US Citizens ONLY - Register by November 15, 2024.
