Narrative

Violent storms over the weekend knocked down a tree, which in turn knocked down a power line causing the power to go out at the plant and to the pumps. Heavy rains in excess of 6 inches caused flooding. The heavy rain washed out berms and excessive water running down the decline into the mine. MSHA was notified about the flooding.
