Narrative

Operating a Bobcat. Dumped a load of dirt, coal dust and lime, the wind gusted and blew dust in the face of the operator. The operator did not think anything of the incident. He completed his shift and went home without reporting it. It was not until the following morning that he had an issue with his eye.
