Narrative

EE went down to the booster pump on the dredge to check for a stuck rock. While attempting to unbolt the inspection plate off the pump, the locking mechanism on the 3/4"" drive ratchet slipped causing the EE to hyperextend his left shoulder resulting in a strain. EE did not see a doctor until 9/18 adn MRI taken on 9/22.
