Narrative

On 7/23/16 a miner reported a possible fire on a 2 yard loader at 44W 14300 mining block. The mine was evacuated & it was called into MSHA. Working w/MSHA local field office, Mine Rescue teams entered the area & found no fire had occurred. An investigation team found the source to be coolant leaking on the exhaust & therefore this was not an immediately reportable incident.
