- An MSHA spokeswoman confirms that Mr. Goode and his team were investigated, but she denies that they were harassed.
- Last year, for example, an MSHA audit of mine records revealed Pyro did not report eight accidents at William Station, seven of which forced workers to miss work, McAteer said.
- Last year MSHA referred just five cases to the Justice Department for possible prosecution, down from 11 in 1985 and 15 in 1984.
- The Pyro mine had been cited for 1,508 violations and fined $215,757 over the last seven years, according to MSHA.
- Music charged that Schulties was "just trying to shift some responsibility, and it's not there to shift." Shortly after the accident, MSHA reported that the Pyro mine had been cited for 1,508 violations and fined $215,757 over the past seven years.
- MSHA's approval of a faulty ventilation system has been linked to an explosion that killed 13 miners at a Grundy Mining Co. mine near Jasper, Tenn., in 1981.
- The Goode team's troubles came to a climax while David Zegeer, a former Kentucky coal operator, headed MSHA.
- But MSHA spokesman Sam Stafford said such fires are usually caused when a piece of metal equipment hits stone and causes a spark.
- The companies were responsible for 200 of the 4,710 samples that were altered by blowing accumulated dust out of the sample containers, leaving them a clean-looking white color, MSHA said.
- William J. Tattersall, assistant labor secretary for mine safety and health, acknowledged there were "shortcomings" in MSHA's enforcement of regulations at the Pyro Mining Co. mine where the blast occurred.
- Mr. Goode had secretly driven to MSHA's Arlington headquarters to seek an arbiter for the dispute, but, he says, a top agency official merely referred his complaints to his superiors in Norton, which only aggravated the problem.
- During the last MSHA inspection, completed Dec. 15, only one violation was cited, a non-serious one involving storage of compressed-gas cylinders, according to records.
- In another accident, miner Richard Boggs was crushed by a 12-foot-high block of falling coal at a Harlan County, Ky., coal mine in June 1985, after the mine's owner and MSHA supervisors had ignored repeated warnings of unsafe roof conditions.
