On
July 21, 2010, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street and Consumer Protection Act (the Dodd-Frank Act) was enacted. Section 1503 of the Dodd-Frank Act contains new reporting requirements regarding mine safety, including disclosing on a
Current Report on Form 8-K the receipt of an imminent danger order under section 107(a) of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (the Mine Act) issued by the Mine Safety and Health Administration.
On December 1, 2010, Rum Creek Coal Sales, Inc., a subsidiary of Massey Energy Company (the Company) and the operator of
the Companys Camp Branch Mine, received an imminent danger order under section 107(a) of the Mine Act. The order stated that the surface operation had received more than two inches of rain overnight, causing a vertical spoil bank to be in
