In the Mining Sector, Safety is utmost important factor. The major goal of this article was to reduce the Mine Accidents with respect Mine Haulage and Transportation system in underground Coal mines. Total 11 major hazards are identified as Principal Hazards in Indian coal mines, as per DGMS Circular No.5 of 2016 for which Principal Hazard Management Plans (PHMP) are to be prepared and to be put in operation as per CMR 2017. HAULAGE and TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM is one of them. In addition to the stipulated 11 principal hazards, no additional hazard has been identified as a principal hazard in the Broad Brush Risk Assessment (BBRA) of the RKNT Incline Mine. However, other hazards which are not potentially hazardous to result in multiple fatalities have been identified and Management control plans shall be put in place for managing those hazards.
The HAULAGE & TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM hazard has been critically assessed by the Safety management team of the mine and hazard mechanisms through which the hazard can result in a risk or an accident have been identified and risk assessment has been done. Risk scoring has been done as per DGMS Circular No. 2 of 2011. Risk ranking has been done to identify hazard mechanisms with higher risk scores and appropriate control measures are put in place to mitigate the same. Existing control mechanisms have been analyzed for their effectiveness in finalizing the proposed control measures. Responsibility fixing has been done rationally, duly considering practical possibilities. The inputs required for effective implementation of this PHMP has been identified and action plan drawn up to procure the same.
