## Narrative

Smoldering coal which was started by the high winds and spontaneous combustion was noticed at 12:00 PM in the North A1/2 face and it was going to be several hours before a rubber tire dozer could get to it to bury it because of the shovel trailing cable across the road. A cable duct was put in place and a rubber tire dozer was able to cross the cable and bury the hot spot.
