MSHA sampling at ADDCAR Systems 13 HWM Serial No 23013 shows respirable coal dust averaging 0.41 mg/m3 (100% compliant) across 24 samples.

Health sampling
A sample is a point in time compliance measurement, not an individual exposure history. These figures describe MSHA sampling records and do not establish causation or personal dose.
Respirable coal dust
Respirable coal dust and silica figures cover coal facilities. Dust compliance is measured against the current 1.5 mg/m3 standard; samples predating the 2014 standard are included, so compliance rates are a coarse historical signal.
