In an effort to assist mining operations in their compliance efforts, MSHA is providing a list of the "Most Frequently Cited Standards" by mine type. We hope by providing this information, focus will be placed on areas that need attention.  We will be providing "Compliance Tips" for some or all of these items in the near future.  When a "Compliance Tip" becomes available, there will be a blue check mark which will link to the appropriate tip.
