Promotion of advanced and applicable technical equipment for mine safety

Administrative Measures for the Catalogue of Obsolescence of Backward Technical Equipment (for Trial Implementation)

These Measures are formulated in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Production Safety Law of the People's Republic of China, the Mine Safety Law of the People's Republic of China, and the Law of the People's Republic of China on Promoting the Transformation of Scientific and Technological Achievements.

Article 2 Advanced and applicable technical equipment for mine safety refers to technologies, processes, materials and equipment with excellent safety performance, high degree of intelligence or strong practicability; Backward technical equipment refers to technologies, processes, materials and equipment with poor safety performance and low reliability that seriously endanger the safety of mine production.

Article 3 The State Administration of Mine Safety Supervision is responsible for collecting advanced and applicable and backward technical equipment for mine safety, publishing and managing the promotion catalogue of advanced and applicable technical equipment for mine safety (hereinafter referred to as the promotion catalogue) and the catalogue of technical equipment prohibited from use in mines (hereinafter referred to as the elimination catalogue).

Article 4 The collection, evaluation, determination, release and implementation of the promotion catalogue and the elimination catalogue shall adhere to the principles of law, regulations and procedures, and shall adhere to fairness, impartiality and openness.

Article 5 The State Administration of Mine Safety Supervision shall, in accordance with the development level of scientific and technological equipment for mine safety and the urgent needs of mine safety production, and in combination with the actual situation of mine safety production, timely face the society and carry out the collection of advanced, applicable and backward technical equipment for mine safety.

Article 6 The selection process of the promotion catalogue includes application, recommendation, formal review, expert review, publicity, release and other links.

The compilation process of the elimination catalogue includes such links as solicitation, expert review, publicity and release.

Article 7 Technologies, processes, materials and equipment that are compatible with the development level of mine safety production and can play an important role in the intelligent construction of mine safety, disaster prevention, monitoring and early warning, supervision and supervision, emergency rescue, personnel reduction and efficiency enhancement, green and low carbon can be applied for listing in the promotion catalogue.

The obsolescence catalogue mainly collects technical equipment that has caused accidents due to technical backwardness, defects and other reasons, or has poor safety and reliability and has major potential safety hazards, or has been explicitly prohibited from use in other industries.

Article 10 The application materials for advanced and applicable technical equipment shall be authentic and effective, including the attribution of achievements, technical level, safety and progressiveness, economic rationality, and feasibility of popularization, and shall be accompanied by corresponding certification materials.

The collection materials for backward technical equipment shall include the reasons for elimination, the scope of elimination, and the replaceable technical equipment.

Article 11 The provincial mine safety supervision and supervision departments are responsible for the review and recommendation of the application materials for advanced and applicable technical equipment and the submission of the collection materials for backward technical equipment within their jurisdiction. Relevant industry associations and central enterprises can directly submit application and solicitation materials to the State Mine Safety Supervision Bureau.

Article 12 The State Administration of Mine Safety shall conduct a formal examination of the application materials for advanced and applicable technical equipment to confirm whether the materials meet the basic conditions for application.

Article 13 The State Administration of Mine Safety shall organize or entrust a third party service agency to organize relevant experts to set up an evaluation group by means of government purchase of services, to carry out expert evaluation on the advanced and applicable technical equipment that has passed the formal examination from aspects of safety, progressiveness, applicability, feasibility, etc., and to propose the catalogue to be popularized. For the collected backward technical equipment, expert review shall be carried out from the aspects of application, existing risks and hidden dangers, and the safety, feasibility, and economy of the alternative technical equipment, and the proposed elimination list shall be proposed.

Article 14 The catalogue to be promoted and the catalogue to be eliminated shall be publicized through the government website of the State Administration of Mine Safety after soliciting the opinions of relevant departments, and the publicity time shall not be less than 10 working days; If there is no objection to the announcement, it shall be submitted to the executive meeting of the State Mine Safety Supervision Bureau for deliberation and announced according to the procedure.
