Sago Mine Information
Temporary FOIA Reading Room


Please Note:
Because of the large volume of requests for public information regarding the Sago Mine, the Mine Safety and Health Administration has decided in response to this overwhelming request for public information to begin a process of scanning and reviewing the most frequently sought documents related to the mine. Some of these documents must be reviewed for applicable FOIA exemptions (for example, all Social Security numbers or personal telephone numbers will not be released), and all documents will need to be properly prepared for viewing. As documents are prepared and reviewed, they will placed in this temporary reading room file. The agency intends for this posting to be a convenience to the public seeking information and the MSHA staff who must process the large number of requests that are pending.
