In this particular case, 111 innocent people lost their lives in 1947 because public officials in public administration did not regard the public safety of those people who depended upon them to enforce regulations set in place to protect them. The lives of many families were changed forever. John Bartlow Martin, in his writings about the incident, called “The Blast in Centralia No. 5: A Mine Disaster No One Stopped” recounts the catastrophe and tries to bring some understanding as to why the disaster occurred. LOGISTICAL ALTERNATIVES Driscoll O. Scanlan was the mine inspector at the mine when this disaster occurred.
Facts: Client suffered serious injuries at work when she fell thirty feet off a conveyor designed to carry employees from one work level to another. She was injured when the conveyor malfunctioned and failed to stop when she reached the top of the lift. The conveyor had been in use for twenty-five years, and her employer replaced it the day after the accident. The employer dismantled the conveyor and disposed of many of the important parts. It appears that the employer intentionally disposed of the parts.
They were unsafe because there were no regulations on how they were built. Some tenements didn’t even have windows or fire escapes. As a result many immigrants were caught and killed in fires (OK). Some groups tried to change the living conditions for the better. Immigrants worked in sweatshops that were dangerous.
Employees would have a better position and understand the circumstances of their co-workers being trapped. Both audiences should receive a communication release from the mining company. The first communications release should be to the families through the media. A crisis has occurred at one of our mines, the San Jose mine of the San Esteban Mining Company located in northern Chile. A huge rock failure is to blame for this incident.
It saddens me today that I have to gather you here with news of this magnitude. Today one of our copper mines collapsed with thirty-three men getting trapped 2,000 feet below ground. At this time we are not sure of the condition of the men, but rest a sure that we are making every attempt into located them and bringing them home to safety. Let me inform you that the mines can be very dangerous and before we start the rescue we want to ensure that they are out of harm’s way. Once we have this information we can begin with the rescue.
Space Shuttle Columbia Disaster The Space Shuttle Columbia disaster happened on February 1st, 2003, which broke on the way back to the Earth. All the astronauts, including two women died in this disaster. The reason why this disaster happened was a piece of foam insulation broke off from the Space Shuttle external tank which damaged the left wing of the shuttle. Even though some engineers of NASA had doubted that the left wing of shuttle had been damaged, the administration staffs restricted to do advanced research. The engineers of NASA found that the foam shedding and debris strikes could not be avoided and solved, even though the previous design of space shuttle required that the external tank was not to shed foam or other debris.
Using a tectonic activity you have studied, how effective was the management of the event? On 12th January 2010, at 16:53, a Magnitude 7 earthquake struck with epicentre just a short distance west of Port-au-Prince, the Haitian capital city. 3,000,000 people required aid, 230,000 died, and 1,000,000 people were made homeless. It is true to say that a M7 earthquake would cause devastation in any country, but this was particularly so in Haiti due to the poor management of the event. There are three main factors to consider when assessing the management of a tectonic event: prediction, preparation, and response.
Abstract John Bartlow Martin discusses the case during March 25, 1947, The Blast in Central No.5: A Mine Disaster No One Stopped. This case history is well known for a coal mine near the town of Centralia, Illinois for its lack of mine safety and health concerns , which resulted in an explosion when an under burdened shot or blown-out shot ignited coal dust which 111 out of 142 men were killed. After the event many pin point whom are to be blamed and find how could have the tragedy been prevented. Driscoll O. Scanlan at the age of 16 a former miner already for thirteen years, was appointed as one of the 16 Illinois’ state mine inspectors by Governor Dwight H. Green for Scanlan’s district. Believing in the Governor Green’s promise to miners in enforcing mining laws, Scanlan’s worked on working over beyond more that all the other appointed inspectors.
On paper one month before the collapse of the 35w Bridge, The Stillwater Bridge was rated worse. This inspection was done by the very same firm, URS a multi-million dollar engineering company, which was responsible for the inspection of 35W; MnDOT has said the bridge is safe otherwise it would be shut down. Galarnyk saw the same conditions the report documented unfortunately with the same urgency. It will only take one critical part to fail and the whole structure will tumble into the river. Hopefully no one will be injured or killed at the time this event happens.
It was closed to visitors between 1992 and 1996 for restoration works; since it reopened only 80 people per day are allowed entry and there can be a 2–3 weeks wait to get a ticket. It was discovered by accident in 1902 when workers cutting cisterns for a new housing development broke through its roof. The workers tried to hide the temple at first, but eventually it was found. The study of the structure was first entrusted to Father Manuel Magri of the Society of Jesus, who directed the excavations on behalf of the Museums Committee. Magri died in 1907, before the publication of the report.
