Narrative

Employee was setting up the #3 face in 22nd West. He was preparing to install a ventilation tube (that was laying on the ground) into the existing ventilation tube that was hung from the mine roof. He noticed that the vent tube needed to be turned end for end and as he reached & lifted the tube and spun it around, he felt a sharp pain in his lower back. Released for modified work.
