In blasting operations conducted on the s fface in
the past, we have had some bad experience: and caused
damage which could have been avoided. On recently
we had an experience of this kind in whlc a man was
injured by flying rock and two cf ' were waged, and
because of this our insurance cam ecommended
that we use blasting mats in - uture.
Since we do not do much *.-‘ ing 0 the surfs ; I
doubt that we would war' ‘0 purcha.: a atandard~type
. blasting man, but. I won ' suggest at, if you have
occasion to do any blastii_ y - ry to protect the
blast with materi- onven . at hand, such as
tree limbs, 10;. ' ti‘ eb cetera.
