Narrative

An employee was performing routine surveillance operation rounds on a furnace and nearby equipment. The employee heard a rumbling sound coming from a low-pressure steam vent and when he looked up, he saw water falling from the vent. He quickly moved to avoid the falling water and ran into a pipe and then fell, resulting in a right tibia fracture.
