Narrative

A rock fell from an unbolted area and struck a bolter operator. The bolter operator did not receive serious injuries. MSHA issued a K Order for an incident that did not meet the criteria for a serious accident. The operator was examined at a local hospital and returned to work on his next scheduled shift. We are contesting the issuance of the order.
