MORGANTOWN, WV (AP) — State inspectors have issued 45
violations at a West Virginia coal mine since two men died there,
including one for negligently rigging the switch on a hoist with a piece
of wood and a rusty bolt.
Edward Finney of Bluefield, Va., died
at Pocahontas Coal's Affinity Mine near Sophia on Feb. 7 when he was
pinned under a hoist he'd been moving trash into. Hoists are used to
move miners and supplies between the surface and underground operations.
After
Finney's death, an inspection found a newly installed switch on the
service hoist had been improperly installed. The inspector called it a
serious violation indicating "an extremely high degree of negligence."
Tennessee-based
United Coal Co. owns Pocahontas Coal. It didn't immediately comment
Tuesday but has said it's cooperating with investigators.
