Employee Suffers Burns in Fire Works Explosion

At approximately 11:20 a.m. on September 12, 2008, Employee #1 was working on a piece of quick match inside the seal control room. Employee #1 was removing an electric match from the quick match by cutting the paper (brown craft paper) on the quick match with a pair of stainless steel scissors. Employee #1 held the quick match in her left gloved hand (latex glove) and was having difficulty cutting it. When Employee #1 poked the quick match and the string deeply, the tip of the scissors contacted or impacted the electric match head causing a quick spark. The spark ignited approximately 10 pieces of quick match lying on the table below Employee #1's hand. Employee #1 sustained facial burn injuries and serious burn injuries of her left hand and was hospitalized.
