MSHA's Data Retrieval System
As Developed by PEIR

System Status Report	The Data Retrieval System was last updated October 10, 2004.

MSHA's Data Retrieval System (DRS) permits miners, operators and other interested parties to retrieve mine overviews, accident histories, violation histories, inspection histories, inspector dust samplings, and operator dust samplings and employment/production data.

Information Search Instructions
Please enter a valid MSHA Mine ID or Contractor ID, if you know it. This is the quickest and most concise way to search for information. Another way to search is by name of operator or mine name. You may enter a portion of the name or all of it, if you know the name. The more information you provide, the more refined your results will be.

Please Note:
The information provided by the Data Retrieval System is based on data gathered from various MSHA systems. As there may be a lag time in data being entered into those systems, there will also be a lag in the reflection of that data on the DRS.
