Part 100 Conference Settlement Agreements

Effective April 1, 2019, for all citations that will be regularly assessed, MSHA will grant Part 100 conferences on the understanding that the goal of the conference is to reach a binding resolution on all citations being conferenced. You are encouraged to request a conference for all issuances you would consider contesting before the Federal Mine Safety and Health Review Commission. If you and MSHA come to an agreement, the parties will execute an agreement and contest waiver that will bind both parties to the agreement.
