Narrative

EE & co-workers were lifting a valve in the unit in the clarification area. He looked up to make sure the valve being lifted would clear the other equipment & some liquor dripped on the corner of his hard hat & splashed in his right eye(under his safety glasses). Prescription medication had to be used for his eye.
