## Narrative

A power surge was created because of a brief power bump that occurred from our power source (Avista Utilities). This caused fuses to burn in the hoist fuse bank and resulted in the hoist being shut down for 2 hours and ten minutes. There were 96 persons underground at the time. We still had 2 hoists that were operable.
