Five Consol ops take home Holmes honors

The Shoemaker operation in Marshall County and the Blacksville No. 2 mine in Wana were both honored for their work underground in 2010.

The remaining recipients were the Fola and Peg Fork surface mines in Bickmore and Naugatuck, respectively, and the Peach Orchard preparation plant in Bickmore.

"The employees we have at the five operations that earned the awards are to be commended for the personal commitment they each bring to safety every day. It is that commitment to and focus on safety which is recognized through these awards," Consol president Nicholas DeIuliis said.

Holmes Safety Awards are given out annually by the Joseph A Holmes Safety Association to mines which meet specific criteria and show a commitment to and record of safety excellence.

Crews will be presented with the awards at the West Virginia State Council of the Joseph A Holmes Safety Association's 28th annual meeting May 21.
