Underground Construction/Rail maintenance - Stillwater Mine - Nye, MT

(2021-05)

My primary job as rail maintenance is to tear out B.O. rail and replace it. I have been trained on multiple pieces of equipment including skid steers, loci, loader, getmen, Gehl forklifts, ect. to complete the task at hand. I have repaired multiple pieces of equipment to make sure they're in safe operation for underground usage.

I sign off on multiple SOP to ensure safety, which is priority in my day-to-day work. Due to my fabrication background, I have also done a lot of welding repair jobs underground.
