00:00:02.020 --> 00:00:08.790
But it is absolutely state-of-the-art there is nothing more advanced out there in the field right now. Virginia is now equipped with the most
00:00:09.400 --> 00:00:11.400
advanced mine rescue equipment
00:00:11.559 --> 00:00:16.979
available. We felt like we needed to get out front in mine rescue. The Virginia Department of Mines, Minerals
00:00:16.980 --> 00:00:20.459
and Energy started the state's first mine rescue team in
00:00:21.130 --> 00:00:23.760
2016. Now that the roster is full
00:00:23.890 --> 00:00:28.800
they are equipping themselves with the best in underground mobility and communication
00:00:29.019 --> 00:00:33.148
It is all possible thanks to a grant from the Mine Safety and Health Administration
00:00:33.969 --> 00:00:39.839
This technology has moved us to the very front of mine rescue development communication. The IWT
00:00:40.450 --> 00:00:47.819
communication equipment is a multi-use system reaching up to six miles underground. It tracks the mine rescue team,
00:00:48.579 --> 00:00:52.109
continuously monitors the air and most importantly
00:00:53.739 --> 00:00:55.739
it is how those underground
00:00:55.960 --> 00:01:00.899
communicate. It goes all the way back out to the command center on the surface and out there
00:01:00.899 --> 00:01:04.048
We can make decisions quicker because we're getting information a lot quicker.
00:01:06.070 --> 00:01:13.080
To move as fast as possible the team needed a way to carry the equipment associated with the communication system underground.
00:01:13.630 --> 00:01:19.470
That's when they found R2. R2 is our rescue ride. We use it to haul people and equipment.
00:01:19.470 --> 00:01:22.109
Just help us get everything we need
00:01:22.659 --> 00:01:28.679
in as quickly as possible. Going in R2 holds the cable and other equipment needed to keep the
00:01:29.259 --> 00:01:33.839
communication line open. That actually gives us a mobile command center that we don't have to reset.
00:01:34.090 --> 00:01:39.360
We can continuously move with it and move with the team as they explore. R@ was specially designed
00:01:39.490 --> 00:01:44.790
For going into underground coal mines. It was made here in Virginia
00:01:44.790 --> 00:01:50.859
and it is specially designed for underground use. It's what we call permissible approved.
00:01:50.869 --> 00:01:58.089
Coming out R2 can carry miners, helping them get to the surface faster.
00:01:59.840 --> 00:02:07.780
This equipment will be available for all emergency situations and to any mine rescue team that responds to an emergency
00:02:08.239 --> 00:02:12.069
Those other teams that don't have it are working with us and that's why we wanted it.
00:02:12.069 --> 00:02:18.279
And, it's not only useful on a mine site. It ca be used in any search and rescue efforts should
00:02:18.319 --> 00:02:20.768
Virginia's mine rescue team get the call.
00:02:21.950 --> 00:02:27.009
