No. DGMS (Tech) circular No. O 6 of 2020 Dhanbad dated 2"7 .02.2020

To

The Owner/Agent/Manager of Coal and Metalliferous Mines & OEM

Subject: Minimum Design requirements for various Safety Features to be

incdrporated for use in Heavy Eafth Moving Machinery (HEMM) & Heavy/Light
vehicles in Open Cast Mines.

1. With increasing dependence on opencast mines for all the production demands in the
Coal and Metalliferous sector, there has been a steep rise in the population of HEMMs and
heavy/light vehicles in mines, distributed between both departmental and contractual
corponents. The recent statistics on alarming rise in cases of incidences/accidents in
opencast mines singularly point to the basic cause as intricately connected to such
deployment in mines. Though, several statutory provisions have already been made under
the Coal Mines Regulation s, ZOtl and the Metalliferous Mines Regulations, 1961, and
various statutory permissions issued thereunder apart from DGMS Circulars having been
issued from time to time, the issue of their safe operations with pafticular reference to
provisioning and satisfactory operation of various safety features, continues to be a major
cause of concern to all.

2. Inspections by officers of this Directorate in the recent past have revealed highly
unacceptable levels of compliance in nrines, with mere provisioning of such safety
features gaining the upper hand rather than effective and sustained functionality. Even on
provisioning, it-has been observed that there are wide variations on design aspects, with
availability of multiple but unverified types/models, mostly without adherence to any
acceptable Indian/International standards wherever are available already. In nut shell, the
very purpose of provisioning and effective functioning of such safety features with HEMMs
deployed in opencast minei, appears to be largely defeated as could be appreciated by
the alarming rising trends of connected incidences/accidents;

3. Therefore, with a view to harmonizing the entire gamut of safety features to be

provided with any HEMM and heavy/tight vehicles for deployment in an opencast mine, in
iespect of the minimum required design/functionality, a one day technical workshop was
organized at DGMS(HQ) on the occasion of the 119th Foundation Day Celebrations on the
7ttrof .January,2020 inwhich, a total of 260 senior level representatives from coal mines,
metalliferous mines, manufacturers and educational/other institutions respectively,
pafticipated, including officers from this Directorate.

4. Arising out of wide, extensive and successful deliberations, a broad

consensus was arrived at amongst all stake holders into maintaining the
minimum design requirements of such safety features as per the Guidelines
enclosed with this Circular. It may please be borne in mind that the enclosed
guidelines are only the minimum recommended levels and may be altered from
!i-_" to time as per evolving needs and that there is no bar on adherence to any
higher/superior levels of design and functionality in the interest of safety, It
also fufther be appreciated that adherence to this circular will go a long way in
drastically minimizing hazards due to operation of both HEMM and light/heavy
vehicles in opencast mines, thus commensurately enhancing safety in mines.

5. Accordingly, the owner/agent/manager of every opencast mine in operation and the

Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) are requested to ensure compliance with this
circular4
