Narrative

An unplanned roof fall occurred at XC78 in entry #9 on the Main North. The fall measured 20""Lx18'Wx5""H, limited to the intersection. There were no injuries and no equipment involved. The fall was in the intake escape way and required the lifeline to be re-routed. The lifeline has been re-routed and supplemental roof support has been installed.
