They shall be protected from sources of static or other electrical contact.\n\n(j) For the protection of underground workers, special precautions shall be taken when blasting in close proximity to underground operations, and no blasting shall be done that would be hazardous to persons working underground.\n\n(k) Holes shall not be drilled where there is danger of intersecting a charged or misfired hole.\n\n(l) Only wooden or other nonsparking implements shall be used to punch holes in an explosive cartridge.\n\n(m) Tamping poles shall be blunt and squared at one end and made of wood, nonsparking material, or of special plastic acceptable to the Mine Safety and Health Administration.\n\n(n) Delay connectors for firing detonating cord shall be treated and handled with the same safety precautions as blasting caps and electric detonators.\n\n(o) Capped primers shall be made up at the time of charging and as close to the blasting site as conditions allow.\n\n(p) A capped primer shall be prepared so that the detonator is contained securely and is completely embedded within the explosive cartridge.\n\n(q) No tamping shall be done directly on a capped primer.\n\n(r) Detonating cord shall not be used if it has been kinked, bent, or otherwise handled in such a manner that the train of detonation may be interrupted.\n\n(s) Fuse shall not be used if it has been kinked, bent sharply, or handled roughly in such a manner that the train of deflagration may be interrupted.\n\n(t) Blasting caps shall be crimped to fuses only with implements designed for that specific purpose.\n\n(u) When firing from 1 to 15 blast-holes with safety fuse ignited individually using hand-held lighters, the fuses shall be of such lengths to provide the minimum burning time specified in the following table for a particular size round:\n\nNumber of holes in a round Minimum burning time, minutes 1 2 2 to 5 22⁄3 6 to 10 31⁄3 11 to 15 5\n\nIn no case shall any 40-second-per-foot safety fuse less than 36 inches long or any 30-second-per-foot safety fuse less than 48 inches long be used.\n\n(v) The burning rate of the safety fuse in use at any time shall be measured, posted in conspicuous locations, and brought to the attention of all men concerned with blasting.\n\n(w) Electric detonators of different brands shall not be used in the same round.\n\n(x) Adequate priming shall be employed to guard against misfires, increased toxic fumes, and poor performance.\n\n(y) Except when being tested with a blasting galvanometer:\n\n(1) Electric detonators shall be kept shunted until they are being connected to the blasting line or wired into a blasting round.\n\n(2) Wired rounds shall be kept shunted until they are being connected to the blasting line.\n\n(3) Blasting lines shall be kept shunted until immediately before blasting.\n\n(z) Completely wired rounds shall be tested with a blasting galvanometer before connections are made to the blasting line.\n\n(aa) Permanent blasting lines shall be properly supported, insulated, and kept in good repair.\n\n(bb) At least a 5-foot airgap shall be provided between the blasting circuit and the power circuit.\n\n(cc) When instantaneous blasting is performed, the double-trunkline or loop system shall be used in detonating-cord blasting.\n\n(dd) When instantaneous blasting is performed, trunklines, in multiple-row blasts, shall make one or more complete loops, with crossties between loops at intervals of not over 200 feet.\n\n(ee) All detonating cord knots shall be tight and all connections shall be kept at right angles to the trunklines.\n\n(ff) Power sources shall be suitable for the number of electrical detonators to be fired and for the type of circuits used.\n\n(gg) Electric circuits from the blasting switches to the blast area shall not be grounded.\n\n(hh) Safety switches and blasting switches shall be labeled, encased in boxes, and arranged so that the covers of the boxes cannot be closed with the switches in the through-circuit or firing position.\n\n(ii) Blasting switches shall be locked in the open position, except when closed to fire the blast. Lead wires shall not be connected to the blasting switch until the shot is ready to be fired.\n\n(jj) The key or other control to an electrical firing device shall be entrusted only to the person designated to fire the round or rounds.\n\n(kk) If branch circuits are used when blasts are fired from power circuits, safety switches located at safe distances from the blast areas shall be provided in addition to the main blasting switch.\n\n(ll) Misfires shall be reported to the proper supervisor and shall be disposed of safely before any other work is performed in that blasting area.\n\n(mm) When safety fuse has been used, men shall not return to misfired holes for at least 30 minutes.\n\n(nn) When electric blasting caps have been used, men shall not return to misfired holes for at least 15 minutes.\n\n(oo) If explosives are suspected of burning in a hole, all persons in the endangered area shall move to a safe location and no one should return to the hole until the danger has passed, but in no case within 1 hour.\n\n(pp) Blasted areas shall be examined for undetonated explosives after each blast and undetonated explosives found shall be disposed of safely.\n\n(qq) Blasted areas shall not be reentered by any person after firing until such time as concentrations of smoke, dust, or fumes have been reduced to safe limits.\n\n(rr) In secondary blasting, if more than one shot is to be fired at one time, blasting shall be done electrically or with detonating cord.\n\n(ss) Unused explosives and detonators shall be moved to a safe location as soon as charging operations are completed.\n\n(tt) When electric detonators are used, charging shall be stopped immediately when the presence of static electricity or stray currents is detected; the condition shall be remedied before charging is resumed.\n\n(uu) When electric detonators are used, charging shall be suspended and men withdrawn to a safe location upon the approach of an electrical storm.","occurrenceCount":2},{"chapter":"I","heading":"Drilling; general.","officialUrl":"https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-30/chapter-I/subchapter-O/part-77/subpart-K/section-77.1007","part":"77","subchapter":"O","subpart":"K","id":"77.1007","citation":"30 CFR 77.1007","chapterHeading":"CHAPTER I—MINE SAFETY AND HEALTH ADMINISTRATION, DEPARTMENT OF LABOR","subchapterHeading":"SUBCHAPTER O—COAL MINE SAFETY AND HEALTH","partHeading":"PART 77—MANDATORY SAFETY STANDARDS, SURFACE COAL MINES AND SURFACE WORK AREAS OF UNDERGROUND COAL MINES","subpartHeading":"","text":null,"occurrenceCount":1},{"chapter":"I","chapterHeading":"CHAPTER I—MINE SAFETY AND HEALTH ADMINISTRATION, DEPARTMENT OF LABOR","citation":"30 CFR 77.1104","heading":"Accumulations of combustible materials.","id":"77.1104","officialUrl":"https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-30/chapter-I/subchapter-O/part-77/subpart-L/section-77.1104","part":"77","partHeading":"PART 77—MANDATORY SAFETY STANDARDS, SURFACE COAL MINES AND SURFACE WORK AREAS OF UNDERGROUND COAL MINES","subchapter":"O","subchapterHeading":"SUBCHAPTER O—COAL MINE SAFETY AND HEALTH","subpart":"L","subpartHeading":"Subpart L—Fire Protection","text":"Combustible materials, grease, lubricants, paints, or flammable liquids shall not be allowed to accumulate where they can create a fire hazard.","occurrenceCount":1}],"fullCorpus":"/data/title30-sections.json"}}},"meta":{"representation":"json","mineId":"4003026","dataSource":"postgres","snapshotId":"2026-10-17T05:35:58.500035+00:00","completedAt":"2026-10-17T06:17:15.228Z","sourceCount":20,"totalRows":15450873}}
