On June 1, 1998, ARN Coal Company, LLC, filed a petition pursuant to 101(c) of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (Mine Act), 30 U.S.C. sec. 811(c), and 30 CFR 44 et seq., for the modification of the application of 30 CFR 75.350, to its Sargent Hollow Mine, located in Wise County, Virginia.
