What Is M-RAM?

Flaherty Sensabaugh Bonasso PLLC has developed an innovative program designed to assist operators and contractors in the ever-changing regulatory landscape. Mine Regulatory Analysis and Management (“M-RAM”) is designed to provide the mine industry with consistent and cost-effective methods to handle regulatory issues. M-RAM utilizes former MSHA executives on the front lines to allow for an experienced level of review and guidance but at a cost less than hiring a lawyer.

M-RAM’s mining consultants will review and investigate all state and federal regulatory citations and orders in a systematic manner. This process involves:

• Thorough evaluation of all the pertinent elements of your citations and orders
• Analysis of how violations affect your repetitive history
• Utilizing computer software to help identify potential safety problem areas in your operation, and develop safety planning and training to correct these areas
• Management of your S&S history to protect against a pattern of violation notice
• Reducing the increasing cost of assessments
• Taking a principled stand on incorrect citations
• Consultation in emergency situations
