Folks who haul dynamite for a living have an association and it offers a life insurance policy.
Outside of that policy, a dynamite hauler can't get life insurance for anything arising out of the hauling or use of dynamite.
I believe there's a similar situation for the fellows who run the log trucks up in the mountains.

American Coal Co.'s Galatia mine in Saline County was assessed more than $500,000 in penalties, even as production and the number of hours worked declined, according to data from the Mine Safety and Health Administration, part of the U.S. Labor Department.
Federal inspectors cited more than 1,500 infractions at Galatia last year. While the majority were minor, the government levied six penalties of $10,000 or more. The $540,000 in total proposed fines - some are being contested - represent a five-fold increase from 2004.
