Narrative

While climbing a ladder in the hydrator area a mass of lime fell striking EE. The mass was from the wet lime on a boot that had stuck to a rung above him. The safety glasses were dislodged and the mass landed in the right eye. The contact caused chemical burns and no vision impairment. He received a eye cream. The miner had no restricted duty/lost work days.
