MACHINERY · DYS AWY FRM WRK & RESTRCTD ACT
Accident narrative
Two employees were bolting in a narrow belt line area when the bolter tripped the e-stop cable. While discussing reset options, one employee attempted to squeeze through a tight area. While doing so, the bolter shifted, pinning them between the bolter and rib. They called for help, and the other employee moved the bolter to free them.

Accident narrative
At approximately 10:30 PM, the number one main fan went down due to mechanical issues. Based on the inspection, it appears the impellers came off, the bearing locked up and it went high amps/temp.
HOISTING · ACCIDENT ONLY
Accident narrative
During hoist checks, the tanks for the pneumatic system did not refill. Issue could not be resolved within allotted time frame, so EVAC was called. Cause of issue was found to be a rubber gasket from the oiler blew out and lodged itself in the #2 pneumatic valve.
HANDTOOLS (NONPOWERED) · DAYS RESTRICTED ACTIVITY ONLY
Accident narrative
An employee was cutting a zip tie off of a D-ring when the knife slipped and sliced the inside of EE's left forearm. The laceration was approximately 1" in length and required 3 stitches. The employee was permitted to return to work with instructions to keep the wound covered. This incident did not result in any lost time.
SLIP OR FALL OF PERSON · DAYS RESTRICTED ACTIVITY ONLY
Accident narrative
Surface employee tripped/fell near rail yard and suffered minor abrasions/contusions to left hand, right knee/thigh & right chest.

HOISTING · ACCIDENT ONLY
Accident narrative
Lost drive module on Phoist.
HOISTING · ACCIDENT ONLY
Accident narrative
Transformer blew on surface, which caused power to drop on the surface and in the mine. Outage was reported to Cleveland Public Power (CPP) and mine was evacuated until power was restored.
Safety sources and definitions
MSHA Violations (issue date), Accidents (accident date), and Inspections (begin date). Snapshot 2026-10-18.
Counts describe published rows, including contractor records; accident records are not distinct incidents or numbers of people injured.
Zero means no matching records in the imported sources, not proof of no events. Historical coverage differs by source; absence before a source begins reporting is not a zero incident rate. Invalid or absent dates and records after the snapshot are excluded.
S&S means SIG_SUB=Y. Fatality records use DEGREE_INJURY_CD=01. Proposed penalties are not final assessed or paid amounts; missing dollar values are omitted.
Inspection hours are SUM_TOTAL_ON_SITE_HOURS attributed to the inspection start date, without supervisor/trainee hours. Missing hours are omitted; a started inspection may still be open.
Portfolio totals use current mine membership, including events before the current owner or operator's tenure.
CFR headings link to the current Title 30 index; they are not historical legal determinations.
OWNERSHIP
Operator and controller history
Current ownership comes from MSHA Mines. Historical start and end dates come from MSHA Controller and Operator History.

Silica and quartz
Coal quartz, metal/nonmetal personal samples and area samples. Snapshot Oct 18, 2026. 3 silica records across the mine’s published history.
Personal silica samples · concentration / limit
Quarterly mean · published C/E ratio
— No eligible measurements. * Quarter in progress. Means describe the available samples, not average exposure across the mine.
Quartz % is the sample’s quartz content; µg/m³ is its reported concentration. Personal C/E is the ratio to the limit published with that sample. Personal and area concentration units and void status are not specified in those source files.
| Date / sample | Dataset / analyte | Occupation / area | Measurement | Sample status | Published action |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| No silica records match these filters. Missing samples do not establish safe conditions. | |||||
Sources and interpretation
- Coal means use numeric concentrations from samples marked not voided, excluding control/invalid sample types and dates after the snapshot. Missing values remain null; reported zeroes remain zero.
- Quarterly means describe available samples, not mine-wide or worker-average exposure. Quarters with no eligible measurements remain empty; the current quarter is partial.
- Personal C/E is MSHA's published concentration-to-limit ratio. A value above 1 is not by itself a citation or a determination under the 2024 silica rule. Personal and area files do not publish a void-status field.
- Area records include bulk-dust analyses and are kept separate from personal exposure results. Their concentration units are not specified in the source dictionary.
- Missing samples do not establish safe conditions. Coal quartz percentage and concentration are separate measures. No compliance threshold is inferred for coal samples.
