-
7/18/2016 - Contracts and cooperative agreementsA contract to develop a Severe Injury Surveillance System using the Mine Safety and Health Administration's accident/injury/illness database.
-
7/18/2016 - Contracts and cooperative agreementsA contract to evaluate SureWave Technology's seismic system for locating trapped miners by conducting tests at depths of 2,000 ft or more and under various challenging but common conditions.
-
7/18/2016 - Interagency agreementsAn interagency agreement to develop modeling and simulation tools to evaluate the performance of underground mine wireless communications networks.
-
7/18/2016A contract to survey the landscape of mine hazards through a lens wide enough to capture all mine operations, fine-grained enough to pinpoint hazards for each specific type of operation, and responsive enough to detect new hazards as they emerge.
-
7/16/2016 - Contracts and cooperative agreementsA contract to assess the benefits of implementing tube bundle technology into the US mining industry and identifying the logistical barriers and operational aspects considered for deployment.
