Narrative

IE was walking down the belt line and as the IE was passing the booster pump, he stepped over the main waterline to avoid the hoses from the booster pump, when his right foot came down on a chunk of coal. His leg kicked out which was going to cause him to fall. He reached up with his left arm and grabbed the belt chain to keep himself from falling and injured his left arm.
