Listen "When it’s Personal: Section 110 Liability Under the Mine Act"
Episode Synopsis
Among the unique features of the Mine Act is the authority for MSHA to pursue both civil and criminal liability against individuals in their capacity as managers. But to get to that point, MSHA will engage in an in-depth investigation triggered by an elevated enforcement action against the company. In this episode, Arthur and Chris review Section 110 of the Mine Act, which authorizes personal liability, and how application of that law looks in the real world. They offer practical pointers for preparing for a 110 investigation, managing the investigation once it begins, and how to handle to possible outcomes that may result.
