Narrative

EE was in the bottom of #1 clinker cooler checking for loose rack and T bolts. There was still some clinker in the compartment and it sloped down toward the middle. He felt himself slide down the clinker and reached up to grab something to steady himself. He grabbed ahold of a pipe brace and felt something pull in his back as he caught himself.
