\"UpperToday is the eighth anniversary of the Upper Big Branch mine explosion that claimed the lives of 29 coal miners in a massive coal dust explosion.\u00a0 A press release<\/a> from Bobby Scott, Ranking Member of the House Education and Workforce Committee notes that<\/p>\n

five independent investigation reports by state and federal agencies agree that the mine operator violated multiple safety standards.\u00a0 Key safety controls, such as water sprays, were disabled which enabled a small fire to be sparked that led to a devastating disaster. Inadequate rock dusting enabled the fire to propagate into a massive coal dust explosion.<\/p>\n

Scott is calling on Congress to enact the\u00a0Robert C. Byrd Mine Safety Protection Act of 2017<\/a><\/b>, noting that weaknesses in the current law allowed the Upper Big Branch disaster to happen:<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the 15 months prior to the explosion, the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) issued over 600 citations, and ordered the UBB mine closed, in whole or in part, over 50 times due to unsafe conditions.\u00a0 Despite a pervasive pattern of violations, the Massey-operated mine gamed the system and evaded the most severe sanctions.\u00a0 The UBB mine had even set up elaborate advance notice schemes to forewarn mine foremen before the arrival of mine inspectors.<\/p>\n

Events will be held to commemorate<\/a> the tragedy, and the Bluefield Daily Telegraph<\/a> describes the continuing impact on one family.<\/p>\n

Senate Race: The Donald Trump of West Virginia?<\/h2>\n

\"\"Meanwhile, former Massey CEO Don Blankenship, who spent a year in jail for crimes related to the mine disaster, is running against Joe Manchin (D-WV) for West Virginia senator.<\/p>\n

After his release from prison, Blankenship continued on his mission to exonerate himself, insisting that an unavoidable inundation of natural gas \u2014 and not methane gas and excess coal dust\u00a0\u2014 caused the explosion. He launched a Twitter attacking MSHA and former MSHA head Joe Main for causing the explosion, and published a \u00a067-page booklet<\/a>\u00a0that he wrote in prison about his supposedly unfair treatment at the hands of the government, calling himself a political prisoner, and released a number of nauseating videos<\/a> attacking the government.<\/p>\n

All this,\u00a0despite a famous memo<\/a> he sent out telling employees to focus on coal production over everything else. \u201cIf any of you have been asked by your group presidents, your supervisors, engineers, or anyone else to do anything other than run coal (i.e., build overcasts, do construction jobs, or whatever) you need to ignore them and run coal,\u201d Blankenship wrote.<\/p>\n

So far, Blankenship has been striking out. Trump’s MSHA head David Zatezalo has refused Blankenship’s request to re-open the Upper Big Branch investigation while the\u00a0Supreme Court has refused to hear Blankenship\u2019s appeal of his\u00a0conviction for conspiracy<\/a>\u00a0to violate federal mine safety and health standards at the mine.<\/p>\n

Blankenship still has to win the Republican primary<\/a> against\u00a0West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey and Congressman Evan Jenkins.\u00a0 You can read a great Politico article on the race here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
