On September 19, 2013, Timothy Farr, Laborer, age 31, was killed when the flatbed cargo truck he was operating overturned. Farr was transporting four full 250-gallon water totes, which were not secured, while traveling uphill on a steep mine access road. One of the totes shifted and fell off the bed of the truck onto the roadway. The truck began drifting backwards on the 25 percent grade and the remaining water totes shifted. The service brake failed and Farr could not control the truck. The truck turned sharply to an embankment and rolled over onto its roof. The victim was ejected from his seat and entrapped in the operators cab.
