Abstract
This final rule amends the existing MSHA standards for charging tuition and room and board at MSHA's National Mine Health and Safety Academy (Academy) in Beckley, West Virginia. The final rule provides that MSHA may waive tuition fees and room and board charges for the training or meetings of students and non-profit organizations, after the Agency determines that the program would improve the implementation of a statutory function or an activity under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (Mine Act) or a function related to an MSHA appropriation.
