Narrative

Employee was reaching into the northeast hopper on the #1 Dracco when the material above the door flushed. He had his head turned to the side as he performed the work and the falling material deflected off his shoulder striking him in the face. Some of it managed to get under the side shields of his safety glasses and entered his eye.
