Factual Findings

Whatever miners say, investigators must weigh their findings in the interview against the material evidence they discover during the underground investigation. 

As Mullins s testimony suggests, testimony does not always correspond to the evidence underground. Some miners and management lie to protect themselves and their colleagues some honestly cannot recollect events all miners stand in a different relation to risk, see events differently, and represent these events in different combinations of viewpoint in speech and gesture. 

Have you ever seen a sixth cut mined out of that block on the backside Not that 1 recollect. 

The block that the continuous miner is sitting in now, are you aware of any sixth cut being mined out of that block  

Do you know whether it s a practice to mine a sixth cut out of that out of the back end of the block

The two reports may be very similan it may be wise to confine reports to facilities to strictly factual findings, leaving interviewers opinions and ideas for review by the PSM tecim to determine their value and potential application to the implementation plan. 

Avoid intermixing conclusions when presenting the factual findings. Be sure to include a complete list of reference materials used during the investigation. Subsequent investigators or analysts who review the report several years later should be able to substantiate the conclusions reached by the investigation team. 

In addition to the factual findings of the investigation, this incident helps to illustrate the importance of process safety information. AVhen unusual or unprecedented situations are encountered, every effort should be taken to understand the chemical properties and behavior of chemical substances before attempting their removal. The adhesive properties of the fly-ash/lime mixture were obviously affected by water and this led to a large release and structural failure. Had the development of formal procedures been attempted, the knowledge gap might have been identified and a dif-... 

All activities and factual findings during the inspection period are reported in the Preliminary Findings (PF, for all inspections except CWDF) or monthly Interim Report (IR, for continuous monitoring CWDF inspections) (see CWC VA Part II Paragraph 60). An inspection report includes annexes concerning samples taken and analytical results. As part of these Annexes, an on-site Analytical Report is attached, which consists of... 

Inability to access these records in such situations will be considered for inclusion in the section on pending issues in the preliminary factual findings and in the section on issues requiring further attention in the final inspection reports. 

Perhaps it would be simplest to begin by stating the ways in which this new edition, the fourth under the aegis of the present editor, has not been changed. It remains the one-volume source of factual information for chemists, both professionals and students—the first place in which to look it up on the spot. The aim is to provide sufficient data to satisfy all one s general needs without recourse to other reference sources. Even the worker with the facilities of a comprehensive library will find this volume of value as a time-saver because of the many tables of numerical data which have been especially compiled. 

On November 18, 2005, in Houston, the Texas Department of Health Services asked the public to help locate some radioactive vials that disappeared earlier that month from a shipment out of New Mexico. The vials contain antimony-124, a radioactive material for use in the oil and gas industry, with the label RADIOACTIVE. It is believed by authorities that the vials were removed within Texas when the carrier s tractor trailer stopped in Abilene, Austin, Dallas, and Tyler. Anyone finding the missing vials should not touch the box or the actual vials, and should stay at least ten feet away from them. Anyone with factual information should call 512-458-7460. 

Findings As with facts, state whether a finding is opinion or factual. Weigh the evidence for your conclusions or recommendations carefully. If in doubt, provide the reasons behind your findings. 

One can readily see that the conclusions of the authors are based on numerous assumptions rather than on factual data. Unfortunately, this is the nature of retrospective epidemiological studies. One cannot really fault the authors for their sequence of theories leading them to a possible source of the infections. Such efforts are necessary for sorting out the potential source of infections and. through follow-up studies and designed experiments, we can determine sources of infections and methods for prevention. They evidently did omit some observations on the meat samples they did check and observations on the adjacent dairy herd and. they did not take samples from the cattle s environment on the beef farm. If the beef farm was thought to be the source, there should have been more effort to find the organism on that farm. 

Risk communication is the exchange of information and opinions concerning risk and risk-related factors among risk assessors, risk managers, consumers and other interested parties. The goals of this communication are to describe risks and benefits, to conduct a fair and factually oriented debate about different types of actions, and to find solutions for conflicts between stakeholders.
