Works for Morris, Inc.
Frank - How are you doing on this great day? I
hope everything is going well for you and Ms.
Blue! I have some great news to share w/ you. We
had an inspection at our Clodfelter pit
approximately a month ago. 0 Citations!!! Last
week we had an inspection at our Richard's pit
operation. 0 Citations!!!
I let the guys know how proud I am of them, and
recognized them all in front of the whole
company at one of our monthly safety meetings
with the entire company. I give them a lot of
credit, but I also credit the most valuable
training they were able to receive from you this
past winter. It put everything into perspective
for them, and let them know exactly what kind of
monster we are up against. Keep up the great
work, and thank you so much for bringing all of
us miners together and uniting us all.
Sincerely, John Morris
$afepro and The
Industry congratulate Morris, Inc. and the
Professional Clodfelter and Richard's Crews for
their safe and compliant sites. Your hard work
on
$afe
Production and
The LAW during your Refresher Training certainly
paid off!

Knife River MW Does It Right
Frank,
We
met with our MSHA inspector yesterday at our
permanent plant in Decorah, Iowa and also
experienced a "0" inspection!
Your class does level the playing field during
an inspection, and makes the expectations quite
clear for all parties involved.
Thanks!

Knife River Corp.,
North Central Sets The Target!
The Quarrymen and Women dug out
of the Minnesota snows with enthusiasm and immediately went about
making their sites safe and ready for Spring
$afe
Production! The Stark Pit, The Rockville Quarry 3 Pit, The
Naaktgeboren Pit, The Ernie Toth Pit, and The Mark Pit all received
"0 Citation" inspections.
This did not occur by "accident"! It
was part of Knife River's 2007-08 plans to be "World Class". LAW
Seminars were held in Bismarck, ND and St. Cloud, MN the first two
weeks in March followed by scheduled seminars for their subsidiary
companies' Managers, Supervisors and Quarrymen throughout the
remainder of 2007 through 2008.
Armed with their knowledge of the
LAW learned from the March Training, Greg Leidenfrost and Adam
Bialke led these four professional crews to peak readiness for "warm
weather production". The results are obvious! With the Plants safe,
predictable production and higher profits emerge without a Quarry
Person injured for the Spring/Summer
business period.
These are the Quarrymen who made it
happen!

Hanson California
Leaps Ahead Toward a Record-Breaking 2007!
San Diego,
California
Sunol, California
Regional President Dave
Hummel's record-setting $afe
Production team began early preparing for higher profits
by reducing citations and injuries in 2007. Terry Tyson, Regional
EH&S Officer, in early summer set up a
$afepro
MS&H Law Seminar for both areas of the state: the week of 9/11/06 for
the south and the week of 9/18 for the north.
The classes of Managers, Supervisors and Key Hourly
People added to their sites' understanding of the Law and allowed them to
set site agendas for compliance and injury reduction.
Tim, Brant, & Roy, San Marcos Q&P, will provide new Law
updates to continue their site's strong performance |
Eric Riddiough, Pit Supervisor, Mission Valley, went
back and had an MSHA inspection on 9/27-28. The
inspector commented that this Civil Engineer's handling
of the inspection was more professional than he
remembered! This inspection ended
with "0 Citations"!
|
Craig Uram, Plant Maintance Leadman, said at the
end of the class that at first he didn't know why the
Company had sent him to the class; but, certainly now
understood how knowing the Law would make repairs less
expensive and safer for the people. |
