A message from todays incident.

This morning I was able to observe the successful rescue of the trapped worker at the Mulberry incident. I was truly impressed and pleased with the professionalism and team work that were displayed under very difficult and confined conditions. The coordination with the on site workers went smoothly and Dave Smith, the project coordinator for the contractor, was very appreciative of the combined efforts during the rescue. The training and experience of our personnel allowed rescue efforts to be conducted in the safest manner possible.

My thanks to the personnel involved today for an outstanding effort!
