Narrative

A small fire was located in the southwest corner of the coal stockpile. The excavator was located in the quarry and had to be brought up to stockpile to dig the fire out. Fire was extinguished at 9:48 while on the phone with MSHA 1 call. High winds and spontaneous combustion are the likely cause. No worker activity is being done in this area.
