| Task | Move Woodford's 500 gal diesel tank with JLG telehandler. |
| Summary | Mike Shatley picked up the fuel cell using the JLG telehandler and started to back off containment without a spotter. With his wheels turned the forks swung around and knocked over a 55 gal drum of Castrol oil. Puncturing a hole in the drum he immediately got out of the telehandler and ran over to move the drum upright so it would stop spilling. He placed his hand over the sharp edges of the puncture cutting his pointer, middle, and ring fingers through his cotton work gloves. Mike went into the crew shack to wash and bandage his lacerations. He left location to receive stitches at Med Express in Waynesburg, Pa. ~1/2 gal of oil spilled off containment and ~1 gal on containment with Highlands crew immediately cleaning it up. |

The sharp edges cut through my gloves cutting my three fingers. |
