Narrative

The dragline operator was moving a 5 gal bottle of water from a pickup to the dragline shoe. As he raised the bottle to the shoe, he felt a pop in his right shoulder. This was treated as a first aid case until his visit with an orthopedic doctor on 12/30/2005. The orthopedic physician restricted his work making the case MSHA reportable.
