# MSHA Operator Safety Profile by Operator ID

> MSHA Operator Safety Profile by Operator ID is a paid API for AI agents from miningincidents.org, paid per call via x402, $0.02/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-13).

Retrieves identity, mine list, fatality events, and aggregate compliance/violation data for a specific MSHA mining operator by their operator ID

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability msha-operator-safety-profile-by-operator-id-7306a65d -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Pull the full MSHA safety dossier for operator ID 1200001 from Mining Incidents — I need their mine list, fatality events, citation counts, and total penalty dollars.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a consolidated operator-level safety profile from MSHA — including mines, fatalities, and aggregate violation/penalty data — for a specific operator ID. Prefer this over mine-level endpoints when the research is operator-centric (e.g., corporate due diligence, litigation, ESG screening). Prefer over search endpoints when you already have the MSHA operator ID and want a structured dossier rather than a keyword search.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed operator ID format returns an error or empty result
- Operator ID not found in MSHA database returns a 404 or empty payload
- Temporary data refresh lag (weekly updates) may mean very recent incidents aren't reflected
- Payment of $0.02 USDC required; unpaid requests return 402 Payment Required

## How this service works

Mining Incidents is a free, searchable database and research tool covering every reportable US mining incident on file with MSHA. Search by mine, operator, controller, state, year, severity, or any keyword in the investigator&#39;s narrative. 1983 to present, refreshed weekly.

## Output

Returns a structured operator profile including: operator identity details (name, MSHA ID), a list of associated mines with operational status, a full fatality event list, and aggregate compliance totals such as citation counts, significant-and-substantial (S&S) violation counts, and total penalty dollar amounts assessed by MSHA.
