Narrative

On 10/31/2015 at approx. 10:30 am a roof fall above the anchorage was fond on the 4 North track at spad #24+47. The area had been mined in 2009 and was supported with 5 ft. fully grouted bolts. There were no injuries or property damage. The fall will be cleaned up and the area re-supported. The mine was idle at the time of discovery. Normal weathering may have been a factor.
