Tunnel Safety
Typical Tunnel HazardsTight working spaces, low lightUneven working & walking surfacesWet and muddyWorking in close proximity to large equipmentFalling rocks, earth and shotcreteUtility supply linesLack of ventilationNoiseMethane gas

Tunnel Classification
Tunnels are Classified as Gassy, Potential Gassy or Non gassy
Madera sandstone can have small isolated pockets of methane gas so our tunnels are potential gassy
Equipment and electrical have to be MSHA approved for potential gassy
We are not overly concerned about gas, but are taking the next step to be safe

Tunnel UtilitiesCompressed air – for pneumatic tools
Water – for tool use and dust control
Electrical power – for equipment & lighting
Ventilation – for fresh clean air
Communication & Data
Discharge water – excess water used in construction
