A. The roadbed, rails, joints, switches, frogs and other elements of thetrack of all haulage roads shall be constructed, installed and maintained ina manner that ensures their safe operation. In determining their safety,consideration shall be given to the speed of equipment, and type of haulageoperations conducted on the haulage roads.

C. Off-track haulage equipment operators shall observe haulage roads forhazardous conditions during the course of travel and shall promptly corrector report to the mine foreman any hazardous condition observed.
D. Off-track haulage roads shall be maintained reasonably free of bottomirregularities, excess spillage, debris, wet or muddy conditions that makecontrolling off-track equipment difficult, and accumulations of water oversuch areas of haulage roads and in such depths that water could enterelectrical panels and create potentially hazardous conditions.
