Narrative

While loading drums containing soil, EE and a Hycroft EE were attempting to place a drum between another drum and the side of the skid. The drum became hung-up on the section of E Rail track and caused the drum to fall foward and out of the drum picker. The drum ring landed on the EE's foot above his steel toes. This caused a fracture in the bones of his left foot.
