A mechanic failed to wear appropriate eye and face protection while assisting a welder during welding operations. The mechanic suffered from eye discomfort with no permanent damage.
An employee was working on wet uneven ground located near the highwall miner pit. As the employee began rolling the fuel hose into the rear section of the 2003 Peterbilt fuel truck he attempted to kick the fuel hose to help guide the hose into the hose reel. This twisted him around causing him to loose his footing and fall to one knee, resulting in an injury to his back.
The employee was performing duties that consisted of welding and the use of cutting torches while wearing protective equipment in temperatures ranging between 85 and 90 degrees.
Hydro-seeding in 90 degree temperatures. Employees duties required him to climb up and down steep slopes, while dragging a 2 inch hydro-seeding hose. The employee had consumed little to no water when he initially became dizzy and disoriented. During transportation to the hospital the employee passed out.
During the removal of the stick jack on a PC300 Komatsu excavator, an oring seal failed releasing hydraulic oil pressure which struck the mechanic in the left forearm. This resulted in bruising and swelling of the injured area. After X-rays and a medical examination it was determined no fluid had entered the skin.
While observing the installation of the master link in the highwall miner belly chain, a small piece of metal broke loose and struck EE in the right forearm. Resulting in a small laceration and the embedding of the foreign object. EE treated at the Hospital with a tetanus shot and a prescription anti-biotic.
Due to the buildup of material in the catchment bench, a Komatsu PC300 excavator was being used to remove material and buildup the outer berm. The PC300 lost control of a large rock that traveled approximately 600' downhill and passed through a mobile home. The home was damaged beyond repair. The occupant was bruised up after falling through the floor.
