Narrative

CM was in #1 entry, mined into source of water, an ungrouted core hole, unknown driller. Elevation changed 3 brks (180 ft) outby face. Water accumulated in #1 & #2. Moved equipment, began pumping. The water did not present any danger to the men. We do not believe this is a reportable inundation.
