Narrative

Three employees were replacing screens at our aggregate wash plant where soil and rocks are separated. While replacing the screens, a couple tools and a screen fell down to a lower level. EE went to the lower level to retrieve the fallen items. While he was down there, another screen, approx. 5 lbs. fell on him, hitting him in the face.
