When Mineral sites are permanently closed a notification is made to the Mine Safety & Health Administration (MSHA) and MSHA closes out the Mine's Identification (ID) Number (e.g. Noralyn, Hookers Prairie, Hopewell, etc.). Once MSHA closes out the Mine ID # the site becomes regulated by OSHA; and contractor reporting, training and record keeping will be under OSHA's Standards.
