Texto original en inglés de la MSHA
On Thursday, January 27, 2011, John C. Lester Jr. (victim), a 19 year old underground miner with a little over three months total eperience, was killed when he became caught between the first outby belt conveyor loading surface and the discharge coal guide of the section belt conveyor. Both belt conveyors were operating at the time of the accident. It is likely this accident occurred when the victim, who had little mining eperience, attempted to cross the moving No. 3 conveyor belt just inby the No. 4 conveyor belt head and fell on top of the No. 3 conveyor belt. The No. 3 conveyor belt immediately carried him into the discharge coal guide boards, causing him to become caught in the structure.
-
The mine operator demonstrated inadequate oversight of an employee in that a miner with little mining eperience was working alone and attempted to cross a moving conveyor belt.
Acción correctiva: Training was conducted and documented for all persons at the mine, in the hazards associated with working around and crossing moving conveyor belts.
