Narrative

Employee was setting up a pump and cleaning debris away from the pump. Shortly after getting out of the water EE noticed legs felt like they were burning. This resulted in employee receiving 2nd degree burns to legs. After further investigation we believe lime from either the top or road mix material is what caused the burns.
