3/1/2023 - Research projectsA project to identify and remediate actual and perceived barriers to full implementation of hearing conservation programs at surface stone, sand, and gravel mines.
-
12/21/2022 - Research projectsResearch to identify what the mining industry needs to to do to reduce noise exposure and prevent occupational noise-induced hearing loss among U.S. miners.
-
4/2/2019 - Research projectsA project to assess whether vibration intensity can successfully be measured on heavy-duty mining equipment and the human body simultaneously using technology capable of evaluating hand-arm vibration (HAV) and its possible translation to the hearing canal.
-
10/22/2016 - Research projectsA project to improve the effectiveness of hearing loss prevention interventions through development, refinement, promotion, and long-term evaluation.
-
10/22/2016 - Research projectsA project to develop durable noise controls that reduce the noise exposure of longwall mining system crews and facilitate the commercialization of the controls to make them available for all miners.
-
10/22/2016 - Research projectsA project to develop, evaluate, and implement engineering controls to reduce noise over-exposures among haul truck and LHD operators.
-
10/22/2016 - Research projectsA project to develop and evaluate noise controls and alternatives toward reducing sound pressure levels and personal noise exposures from air carbon arcing applications in the mining industry to below permissible exposure limit.
