Narrative

A water inundation occurred due to a Flash Flood from a rainstorm. The Flash Flood washed out a dam in the drainage system, on the surface, which allowed water to enter the mine. The water created holes in four stoppings, one Overcast and one Box Check. No major air changes occurred and no one was injured or entrapped.
