Northshore Mining faces $120,000 in fines after showing “reckless disregard” for worker safety when it failed to repair known issues in an elevated walkway before a section failed in September 2016, injuring one worker.
The Silver Bay pellet plant, owned by Cleveland-Cliffs, failed to maintain its outer walkways and did not provide barricades or warning signs on the crumbling walkways which each warranted a $60,000 fine.
