Consolidated Appropriations Bill, 2004 rescinds 1999 formula

Legislation will be proposed for 2005 to reauthorize the
Workforce Investment Act (WIA). The reauthorization proposal will increase State flexibility and target resources more
effectively. For adults, the proposal will consolidate the Adult,
Dislocated Worker and Employment Service State Grants into
a single block grant to facilitate coordination and eliminate
duplication in the provision of services to adults. For youth,
the proposal will minimize overlap between the Departments
of Labor (DOL) and Education by targeting all of DOL’s formula resources to out-of-school youth programs and national
grant resources to non-school and out-of-school youth programs that have proven effective.

The Trade Adjustment Assistance Reform Act of 2002 (Division A of Public Law 107–210) was signed into law on August
6, 2002. This Act amended the Trade Act of 1974 to consolidate the previous Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) and
NAFTA Transitional Adjustment Assistance (NAFTA-TAA)
programs into a single, enhanced TAA program with expanded eligibility, services, and benefits, which includes adjustment assistance, including cash weekly benefits, training,
job search and relocation allowances. Additionally, the act
provides for a program of Alternative Trade Adjustment Assistance for older workers. The amendments generally apply
only to those workers covered by a petition for certification
filed on or after November 4, 2002. Sections 123(c) and 151(b)
and (c) of the Trade Adjustment Assistance Reform Act provide that workers certified under a petition filed before November 4 will continue to be eligible for services and benefits
in accordance with the requirements that were applicable to
the previous TAA and NAFTA-TAA programs, until such time
as their eligibility under those requirements is exhausted.
Therefore, the amounts appropriated to the Federal Unemployment Benefits and Allowances (FUBA) account are to provide for services and benefits to workers certified under the
amended program, as well as the predecessor programs.

Employment service.—The public employment service is a
nationwide system providing no-fee employment services to
individuals who are seeking employment and employers who
are seeking workers. State employment service activities are
financed by allotments to States distributed under a demographically based funding formula established under the Wagner-Peyser Act, as amended. Employment service allotments
are funded on a program year basis running from July 1
through June 30 of the following year.
Employment service activities serving national needs, which
includes certification of aliens for employment-based visas,
are conducted through specific reimbursable agreements between the States and the Federal Government under the
Wagner-Peyser Act, as amended and other legislation. Funding is also provided for amortization payments for States
which had independent retirement plans prior to 1980 in
their State employment service agencies.
One-stop career centers.—These funds will be used to support the joint Federal-State efforts to improve the comprehensive One-Stop system created under the Workforce Investment Act (WIA). This system provides workers and employers
with quick and easy access to a wide array of enhanced career
development and labor market information services. In this
activity, funds will be used to implement the emerging egovernment strategy for the WIA workforce system, which
will improve accessibility, update the one-stop technology infrastructure, and improve the efficiency of the labor exchange
and other services.
Work incentive grants.—These funds provide competitive
grants to improve access to and coordination of information,
benefits, and services to enable individuals with disabilities
to return to work.

Unemployment compensation.—State administration
amounts provide administrative grants to State agencies
which pay unemployment compensation to eligible workers
and collect State unemployment taxes from employers. These
agencies also pay unemployment benefits to former Federal
personnel as well as trade adjustment assistance to eligible
individuals. State administration amounts also provide administrative grants to State agencies to improve the integrity
and financial stability of the unemployment compensation
program through a comprehensive program, UI Performs. The
purpose is to effect continuous improvement in State performance and related activities designed to assess and reduce errors and prevent fraud, waste, and abuse in the payment
of unemployment compensation benefits and the collection of
unemployment taxes. National activities relating to the Federal-State unemployment insurance programs are conducted
through contracts or agreements with the State agencies or
with non-state entities. A workload reserve is included in

Legislation will be proposed for 2005 to amend the WagnerPeyser Act and the Workforce Investment Act to consolidate
the Employment Service State Grants with the Adult and
Dislocated Worker programs into a single block grant to increase state flexibility, facilitate coordination, and eliminate
duplication in the provision of employment services to adults.
In addition, the Administration will propose legislation to
establish a new fee for applications under the permanent
labor certification program. Fee proceeds would offset the
costs of administering the permanent program and partially
support backlog reduction in regional offices.

This account was initiated as a result of the amendments
to the Emergency Unemployment Compensation law (P.L.
102–164, as amended) which currently provides for general
fund financing for administrative costs related to extended
benefits under the optional, total unemployment rate trigger.
This account is also used to make reimbursements for a portion of benefits paid under the Temporary Extended Unemployment Compensation Act of 2002 (P.L. 107–147 as amended). These funds are transferred to a receipt account in the
Unemployment Trust Fund (UTF) so that resources may be
transferred to the Employment Security Administration Account in the UTF for administrative costs or to the Extended
Unemployment Compensation Account for benefit costs.

This account provides repayable advances to the Black
Lung Disability Trust Fund for making payments from that
fund whenever its balances prove insufficient. The funding
requested in this appropriation for 2005 is entirely for Black
Lung. This spending authority is presented as authority to
borrow in the Black Lung Disability Trust Fund.
This account may also provide advances to several other
accounts to pay unemployment compensation to eligible individuals under various Federal and State unemployment compensation laws whenever the balances in the funds prove
insufficient or whenever reimbursements to certain accounts,
as allowed by law, are to be made. Advances made to the
Federal employees compensation account in the Unemployment Trust Fund and to the Federal unemployment benefits
and allowances account are nonrepayable. All other advances
made to the Federal unemployment account and to the Extended unemployment compensation account (both in the Unemployment Trust Fund) are repaid, with interest, to the
general fund of the Treasury.

Summary of Budget Authority and Outlays
(in millions of dollars)

The Black Lung Disability Trust Fund (BLDTF) revenues,
which consist primarily of excise taxes on coal, are not sufficient to repay its $9 billion debt to the Treasury or to service
the interest on that debt. See discussion in the Black Lung
Disability Trust Fund for a full description of the Administration’s proposal to remedy this problem. As a part of this
proposal, the Administration will propose legislation that will
provide for a one-time appropriation to permit the BLDTF
to compensate the General Fund for lost interest income.

The financial transactions of the Federal-State and railroad
unemployment insurance systems are made through the Unemployment Trust Fund. All State and Federal unemployment tax receipts are deposited in the trust fund and invested
in Government securities until needed for benefit payments
or administrative costs. States may receive repayable advances from the fund when their balances in the fund are
insufficient to pay benefits. The fund may receive repayable
advances from the general fund when it has insufficient balances to make advances to States or to pay the Federal share
of extended benefits.

Legislation will be proposed for 2005 to amend the WagnerPeyser Act and the Workforce Investment Act to consolidate
the Employment Service State Grants with the Adult and
Dislocated Worker programs into a single block grant to increase state flexibility, facilitate coordination, and eliminate
duplication in the provision of employment services to adults.
In addition, the Administration will propose legislation to
establish a new fee for applications under the permanent
labor certification program. Fee proceeds would offset the
costs of administering the permanent program and partially
support backlog reduction in regional offices.

State payroll taxes pay for all regular State benefits. During periods of high State unemployment, extended benefits,
financed one-half by State payroll taxes and one-half by the
Federal unemployment payroll tax, are also paid. The Federal
tax pays the costs of Federal and State administration of
unemployment insurance and veterans employment services
and 97% of the costs of the employment service. The Federal
tax also pays for benefits under the Temporary Extended
Unemployment Compensation program.
The Federal employees compensation account provides
funds to States for unemployment compensation benefits paid
to eligible former Federal civilian personnel, Postal Service
employees, and ex-servicemembers. Benefits paid are reimbursed to the Federal employees compensation account by
the various Federal agencies. Any additional resources necessary to assure that the account can make the required
payments to States will be provided from the Advances to
the Unemployment Trust Fund and other funds account.
Both the benefit payments and administrative expenses of
the separate unemployment insurance program for railroad
employees are paid from the Unemployment Trust Fund and
receipts from the tax on railroad payrolls are deposited in
the fund to meet expenses.

Legislation will be proposed for 2005 to strengthen the financial integrity of the unemployment insurance (UI) system
by reducing tax avoidance and improper benefit payments.
The Administration’s proposal will curtail tax avoidance by
certain unscrupulous employers by deterring schemes to manipulate unemployment tax rates through such means as
transfers of businesses to shell companies. The proposal will
also reduce UI benefit overpayments through quick detection
of individuals who illegally collect unemployment benefits
after returning to work and will improve collection of delinquent benefit overpayments. These efforts to strengthen the
financial integrity of the UI system will help keep State UI
taxes down and improve the solvency of State trust funds.

This wholly owned government corporation administers
mandatory insurance programs to prevent loss of pension benefits under covered private, defined-benefit pension plans if
single-employer plans terminate or if multiemployer plans are
unable to pay benefits.
Single employer benefit payment.—The single-employer program protects about 34 million participants in about 29,500
pension plans. Under this program, a company may voluntarily seek to terminate its plan, or PBGC may seek termination under certain circumstances. The PBGC must seek
termination when a plan cannot pay current benefits.
In a ‘‘standard’’ termination, plan assets must be sufficient
to pay all benefits before the plan is allowed to end. That
payment is in the form of an annuity purchased from an
insurance company or a lump sum payment. After the payment is made, the PBGC guarantee ends. A plan that cannot
pay all benefits may be ended by a ‘‘distress’’ termination,
but only if the employer meets tests proving severe financial
distress, for example, the likelihood that continuing the plan
would force the company to shut down. If the terminated
plan cannot pay at least the PBGC-guaranteed benefits, the
PBGC uses its funds to ensure guaranteed benefits are paid.

Multi-employer financial assistance.—The multiemployer insurance program protects about 9.7 million participants in
about 1,600 plans. Multiemployer pension plans are maintained under collectively bargained agreements involving unrelated employers, generally in the same industry. If a PBGCinsured multiemployer plan is unable to pay guaranteed benefits when due, the PBGC will provide the plan with financial
assistance to continue paying guaranteed benefits, ordinarily
in the form of a loan to the plan. Thirty plans are expected
to receive assistance in 2005.
Pension insurance activities.—Includes pension plan premium collections, premium investments, technical assistance,
and new pension plan promotion activities.
Pension plan termination.—Includes all activities related to
plan termination and trusteeship; plan asset management,
investment and accounting; and benefit administration services.
Operational support.—Includes the administrative, information technology infrastructure, and other shared program support for both PBGC’s insurance and plan termination activities.

Legislation will be proposed for 2005 which affects 2006
and beyond, to amend the Employee Retirement Income Security Act and the Income Tax Code. The amendments help
avoid retirees’ benefit reductions and help stabilize the defined-benefit pension system. They:
• Give employers two years of relief from current pension
plan contribution requirements—now tied to 30-year Treasury
bond interest rates—and base requirements on more appropriate corporate bond rates.
• After the two-year transition period, base pension funding
requirements on a ‘‘yield curve’’ (commonly used in corporate
finance), which would better tie funding requirements to the
timing of the payout of retiree benefits.
• Make additional changes to restrict promises of added
benefits by severely underfunded plans and to provide better
information on pension finances to workers, retirees, and
stockholders.
Additionally, the Administration is developing a plan for
comprehensive reform of the pension funding rules to:
strengthen funding for workers’ defined-benefit pensions; simplify funding rules; offer sponsors new, flexible, approaches
to finance their plans without the current yearly volatility;
and make additional reforms to ensure PBGC’s continued
ability to safeguard pension benefits.

Enforcement of wage and hour standards.—The Wage and
Hour Division works to obtain and encourage compliance with
the minimum wage, overtime, child labor, and other employment standards under the Fair Labor Standards Act, the
Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act
(MSPA), the Family and Medical Leave Act, certain provisions
of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), the wage garnishment provisions in Title III of the Consumer Credit Protection Act, and the Employee Polygraph Protection Act. Prevailing wages are determined and employment standards enforced under various Government contract wage standards.
In 2005, approximately 270,000 persons are expected to be
aided under the Fair Labor Standards Act through securing
agreements with firms to pay back wages owed to their workers. In government contract compliance actions, about 23,500
persons will be aided through securing agreements to pay
wages owed to workers. Under MSPA, approximately 2,000
investigations and 900 housing inspections will be completed.
In the course of all on-site investigations, investigators will
routinely check for employer compliance with child labor
standards and, in all ‘‘directed’’ (non-complaint) investigations, for compliance with the employment eligibility
verification recordkeeping requirements of the INA. The budget maintains resources for the Wage and Hour Division which
are assigned to areas where employment of illegal immigrants
is most prevalent. The targeting of labor standards enforcement efforts in those industries and geographic areas where
unauthorized workers are most prevalent will help to reduce
the economic incentive for such illegal employment practices
and will, in turn, help reduce illegal immigration.
Federal contractor Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO)
standards enforcement.—The Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) enforces equal employment opportunity and nondiscrimination requirements of Federal contractors and subcontractors. In particular, OFCCP enforces:
Executive Order 11246, which prohibits employment discrimination on the basis of race, sex, religion, color, and national
origin; Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the
Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (through a memorandum of understanding with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission), which prohibit employment discrimination against individuals with disabilities; and the Vietnam
Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, as amended, which prohibits employment discrimination against certain protected veterans. OFCCP programs cover close to
200,000 work-sites with a total workforce of 26 million persons.
OFCCP monitors contractors’ compliance through systemic
discrimination cases, and reporting requirements. In 2005,
approximately 2,450,000 individuals will be covered through
7,700 compliance evaluations, 280 complaint investigations,
and 2,050 other compliance actions.
OFCCP also encourages and supports voluntary compliance
by providing compliance assistance to covered contractors. In
2005, over 600 compliance assistance events will be provided
to federal contractors and other stakeholders. For example,
as part of its compliance assistance program, OFCCP provides

Federal programs for workers’ compensation.—The Office
of Workers’ Compensation Programs (OWCP) administers the
Federal Employees’ Compensation Act, the Longshore and
Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act, the Energy Employees
Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act, and the
Black Lung Benefits Act. These programs ensure that eligible
disabled and injured workers or their survivors receive compensation and medical benefits and a range of services including rehabilitation, supervision of medical care, and technical
and advisory counseling to which they are entitled. OWCP
also monitors State workers’ compensation laws.
Program direction and support.—The Program Direction
and Support (PDS) activity provides centralized leadership,
policy, coordination and essential administrative support in
the areas of human resources, information technology; budget
and financial management; strategic planning; performance
reporting; legislative and regulatory analysis; employee safety
and health; labor relations; equal employment opportunity
enforcement, and general support services to all ESA program
components. PDS performs an essential role in the Employment Standards Administration’s pursuit of its mission to
support, protect and defend the rights of American workers,
by providing the necessary policy, planning, guidance, and
management to effectively implement policies and priorities.
Labor-management standards.—The Office of Labor-Management Standards (OLMS) receives and discloses statutorily
required reports required of unions and others, including
union financial reports; audits union financial records and
investigates possible embezzlements of union funds; conducts
union officer election investigations; supervises reruns of
union officer elections pursuant to voluntary settlements or
after court determinations that elections were not conducted
in accordance with the Labor-Management Reporting and Disclosure Act; and administers the statutory program to certify
employee protection provisions under various federally-sponsored transportation programs. In 2005, OLMS plans enhanced efforts to advance union transparency and financial
integrity protections, primarily through increased union audits and compliance assistance efforts. OLMS expects to process 36,000 reports and conduct a total of 4,582 investigations,
audits, and supervised elections.

Federal Employees’ Compensation Act benefits.—The Federal Employees’ Compensation Act program provides monetary and medical benefits to Federal workers who sustain
work-related injury or disease. Not all benefits are paid by
the program, since the first 45 days of disability are usually
covered by keeping injured workers in pay status with their
employing agencies (the continuation-of-pay period). In 2005,
170,000 injured federal workers or their survivors will file
claims; 57,000 will receive long-term wage replacement benefits for job-related injuries, diseases, or deaths. Most of the
costs of this account are charged back to the beneficiaries’
employing agencies.

The Administration will propose legislation to strengthen
program integrity and make the Act more equitable and easier to administer by: 1) converting compensation for new injuries or new claims for disability to a lower retirement-level
benefit at the Social Security retirement age; 2) moving the
3-day waiting period, during which an injured worker is not
entitled to compensation, to the point immediately after an
injury; 3) changing the way schedule awards are paid to allow
uniform lump-sum payments to federal employees eligible for
such awards; 4) replacing augmented compensation for dependents with a slightly higher basic benefit level for all
claimants; 5) allowing OWCP to recover the costs of continuation of pay (COP), a large annual expenditure for federal
agencies, from responsible third parties; and 6) updating ben-

Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act of 2000 (EEOICPA) administration.—Under Executive Order 13179 the Secretary of Labor is assigned primary
responsibility for administering the Energy Employees Compensation program, while other responsibilities have been delegated to the Departments of Health and Human Services
(HHS), Energy (DOE), and Justice (DOJ). The Office of Workers’ Compensation Programs (OWCP) in the Department of
Labor is responsible for claims adjudication, and award and
payment of compensation and medical benefits. The Office
of the Solicitor provides legal support and represents the Department in claimant appeals of OWCP decisions. HHS is
responsible for developing individual dose reconstructions to
estimate occupational radiation exposure, and developing regulations to guide DOL’s determination of whether an individual’s cancer was caused by radiation exposure at a DOE or
atomic weapons facility. DOE is responsible for providing exposure histories at employment facilities covered under the
Act, as well as other employment information. DOJ assists
claimants who have been awarded compensation under the
Radiation Exposure Compensation Act to file for additional
compensation, including medical benefits, under EEOICPA.

The trust fund consists of all moneys collected from the
coal mine industry under the provisions of the Black Lung
Benefits Revenue Act of 1981, as amended by the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, in the form
of an excise tax on mined coal. These moneys are expended
to pay compensation, medical, and survivor benefits to eligible
miners and their survivors, where mine employment terminated prior to 1970 or where no mine operator can be assigned liability. In addition, the fund pays all administrative
costs incurred in the operation of part C of the Black Lung
program. The fund is administered jointly by the Secretaries
of Labor, the Treasury, and Health and Human Services.
The Benefits Revenue Act provides for repayable advances
to the fund in the event fund resources will not be adequate
to meet program obligations. Such advances are to be repaid
with interest. The outstanding debt at the end of each year
was: 1981, $1,510 million; 1982, $1,793 million; 1983, $2,151
million; 1984, $2,497 million; 1985, $2,833 million; 1986,
$2,884 million; 1987, $2,952 million; 1988, $2,993 million;
1989, $3,049 million; 1990, $3,049 million; 1991, $3,266 million; 1992, $3,606 million; 1993, $3,949 million; 1994, $4,363
million; 1995, $4,738 million; 1996, $5,112 million; 1997,
$5,487 million; 1998, $5,857 million; 1999, $6,259 million;
and 2000, $6,749 million; 2001, $7,254 million; 2002, $7,719
million and 2003, $8,244 million. It is estimated to be $8,686
million in 2004 and $9,203 million in 2005 if the refinancing
proposal is not enacted.

The Black Lung Disability Trust Fund (BLDTF) revenues,
which consist primarily of excise taxes on coal, are not sufficient to repay the over $8 billion debt it owes to the Treasury
or to service the interest on that debt. Under current conditions, this indebtedness will continue to grow, with the
BLDTF never becoming solvent, even when benefit outlays
have declined to a level approaching zero. To solve this problem, the Administration will propose legislation that will: (1)
authorize a refinancing (debt restructuring) of the outstanding
BLDTF debt, (2) extend at current rates BLDTF excise tax
levels (set to expire in January 2014) until solvency is attained, and (3) provide for a one-time appropriation to compensate the General Fund for the lost interest income.

The trust funds consist of amounts received from employers
for the death of an employee where no person is entitled
to compensation for such death, for fines and penalty payments, and pursuant to an annual assessment of the industry,
for the general expenses of the fund under the Longshore
and Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act, as amended.
These trust funds are available for payments of additional
compensation for second injuries. When a second injury is
combined with a previous disability and results in increased
permanent partial disability, permanent total disability, or
death, the employer’s liability for benefits is limited to a
specified period of compensation payments after which the

Safety and health standards.—This activity provides for the
development, promulgation, review and evaluation of feasible
occupational safety and health standards and guidance. Before any standard is proposed or promulgated, a determination is made that: (1) a significant risk of serious injury
or health impairment exists; (2) the standard will reduce this
risk; (3) the standard is economically and technologically feasible; and (4) the standard is economically and technologically
feasible when compared with alternative regulatory proposals
providing equal levels of protection. Regulatory reform efforts
include consensus-based rulemaking, development of common
sense regulations, rewriting existing standards so they are
understandable to those affected by them, and regulatory and
non-regulatory process improvements.
Enforcement.—This activity provides for the enforcement of
workplace standards promulgated under the Occupational
Safety and Health (OSH) Act of 1970 through the physical
inspection of worksites, and by fostering the voluntary cooperation of employers and employees. Programs are targeted
to the investigation of claims of imminent danger and employee complaints, investigation of fatal and catastrophic accidents, programmed inspections of firms with injury-illness
rates that are above the national average, and special emphasis inspections for serious safety and health hazards. OSHA’s
enforcement strategy includes a selective targeting of inspections and related compliance activities to specific high hazard
industries and worksites.
State programs.—This activity assists states in assuming
responsibility for administering occupational safety and
health programs under State plans approved by the Secretary.
Under section 23 of the OSHA Act, matching grants of up
to fifty percent of total program costs are made to States
that meet the Act’s criteria for establishing and implementing
State programs which are at least as effective as the Federal
program. State programs, like their Federal counterpart, provide a mix of enforcement, outreach, training and compliance
assistance activities.
Technical support.—This activity provides specialized technical expertise and advice in support of a wide range of program areas, including construction, standards setting, variance determinations, compliance assistance, and enforcement.
Areas of expertise include laboratory accreditation, industrial
hygiene, occupational health nursing, occupational medicine,
chemical analysis, equipment calibration, safety engineering
environmental impact statements, technical and scientific
databases, computer-based outreach products, and emergency
preparedness.
Compliance assistance—Federal.—This activity supports a
range of cooperative programs, training, and outreach that
provide compliance assistance in improving workplace safety
and health, with particular emphasis on small business.
OSHA works with employers and employees through Voluntary Protection Programs recognizing and promoting effective safety and health management; partnerships focusing on
the development of extended cooperative relationships; and
alliances committing organizations to collaborative efforts
with OSHA. Federal agencies are assisted in implementing
and improving their job safety and health programs. Occupational safety and health training is provided at the OSHA
Training Institute and associated Education Centers through-

out the country. Compliance and technical assistance materials are prepared and disseminated to the public through
various means, including the Internet.
State consultation grants.—This activity supports 90 percent Federally-funded cooperative agreements with designated
State agencies to provide free on-site consultation to employers upon request. State agencies tailor workplans to specific
needs in each State while maximizing their impact on injury
and illness rates in smaller establishments. These projects
offer a variety of services, including safety and health program assessment and assistance, hazard identification and
control, and training of employers and their employees.
Training grants.—This activity supports safety and health
training grants to organizations that provide training and
education and develop educational materials for employers
and employees. Grants address safety and health education
needs related to specific topics and industries identified by
the agency.
Safety and health statistics.—This activity supports the information technology infrastructure, management information, and statistical basis for OSHA’s programs and field operations. These are provided through an integrated data network, and statistical analysis and review. OSHA administers
and maintains the recordkeeping system that serves as the
foundation for the BLS survey on occupational injuries and
illnesses and provides guidance on recordkeeping requirements to both the public and private sectors.
Executive direction and administration.—This activity supports executive direction, planning and evaluation, management support, legislative liaison, interagency affairs, federal
agency liaison, administrative services, and budgeting and
financial control.

Note: The Program Evaluation and Information Resources (PEIR) activity, added in the FY 2004 Budget, consists
of funds formerly spread among other MSHA activities. Comparative funding for PEIR is as follows: in fiscal
year 2002, $14 million; and in fiscal year 2003, $17 million.

Enforcement.—The Enforcement strategy in 2005 will be
an integrated approach that links all actions to preventing
occupational injuries and illness. These include inspection of
mines as mandated by the Federal Mine Safety and Health
Act of 1977, special emphasis initiatives that focus on persistent safety and health hazards, promulgation of safety and
health standards, investigation of serious accidents, and onsite education and training. The desired outcome of these
enforcement efforts is to lower fatality and injury rates.
Assessments.—This activity assesses and collects civil monetary penalties for violations of safety and health standards.
Educational policy and development.—This activity develops
and coordinates MSHA’s mine safety and health education
and training policies, and provides classroom instruction at
the National Academy for MSHA personnel, other governmental personnel, and the mining industry. States provide
mine health and safety training materials, and provide technical assistance through the State Grants program.
Technical support.—This activity applies engineering and
scientific expertise through field and laboratory forensic investigations to resolve technical problems associated with implementation of the Mine Act. Technical support administers
a fee program to approve equipment, materials, and explosives for use in mines and performs field and laboratory audits of equipment previously approved by MSHA. It also collects and analyzes data relative to the cause, frequency, and
circumstances of accidents.
Program evaluation and information resources (PEIR).—
