Employee was clearing a plug on the FK Pump for #3 finish mill. He had cleaned out the pump and screw and was working on the flapper when cement that was in the line to the silo came back down the pipe and hit him. It knocked off his hat and glasses and got into both eyes. He wasn't wearing goggles as required.
