Officials Cite Dotiki Mine
KENTUCKY....
State officials have cited the Dotiki mine in in Hopkins County in western Kentucky where a roof collapse on April 28th killed 27 year old Justin Travis and 28 year old Michael Carter. The mine's operator, Webster County Coal, was issued a notice of non-compliance for violations of state laws that require companies to have adequate roof control plans in underground mines. State officials will refer their findings to the state's Mine Safety Review Commission, which could choose to impose fines on the company.
