## Narrative

A inactive hole (gas or oil) was intersected on the midnight LW shift at 21 Shield of the 12 East longwall section.  No accumulation of methane was found but was liberating 2.6% over the hole.  The hole was opened up by using non-sparking tools and plugged. THE OPERATOR IS FILING THIS REPORT IN PROTEST AS MSHA IS SAYING THERE WAS AN INUNDATION OF GAS.  NO ACCUMULATION WAS FOUND.
