EE HAD GONE UP TO THE CRUSHER AND SHUT OFF JAW, BECAUSE A ROCK HAD BECOME STUCK. HE WAS HITTING THE ROCK WITH A SLEDGE HAMMER. WHAT HAPPENED NEXT IS NOT FOR SURE AS NO ONE SAW IT AT FIRST, BUT WHEN HE HIT THE ROCK, THE SLEDGE MUST HAVE GLANCED OFF, THE SLEDGE HAMMER CAME BACK WITH FORCE, HITTING EE IN THE HEAD, WHICH CAUSED HIM TO FALL BACK OVER TO GROUND.

Where Donald J Larkin stands on silica, penalties, and injury rate

MSHA's standard limits respirable silica to 50 micrograms per cubic metre, but MSHA publishes dust and quartz as separate files and never the silica figure itself. We derive it per sample, score it against the limit, and set the operator's injury rate against a benchmark built from the full MSHA operator record. With the 26-year penalty trail, contest posture, and fatality history. Delivered as a PDF with the underlying data as CSV.

The federal record itself stays free on this site. What costs money, and why.
