Narrative

Electrician was working in the #5 cooler pit area replacing lime tunnel lights when lim dust/grit fell down from above into his face. Some of the dust got past his safety glasses and into his right eye causing an injury. Local irrigation couldn't get all the material out of the eye and required medical attention later that day. RTW next regularly scheduled shift on 1-21-08.
