At 9:50 a.m. on Tuesday, May 23, 2006, a 23-year old miner with 10 months of mining experience was fatally injured at Miller Bros Coal LLC, Risner Branch No. 1 Mine. The accident occurred when Steven Bryant, driving a Mack water truck, lost control while descending a steep mine access road. The accident occurred because the service brakes were not adequate, the engine brake was inoperative, and because the victim was not task trained. The approved training plan was not followed and effective procedures were lacking to ensure adequate braking systems. The truck overturned and slid over an embankment.
