Peabody Energy's Powder River Mining unit said no miners were injured after workers were evacuated from part of its North Antelope Rochelle mine in Wyoming following an MSHA imminent danger order.

The order, issued on July 9, stemmed from concerns that loose material could fall from a highwall onto an active haul road used by mine vehicles.

The hazard involved material that could spill over a protective berm and fall onto a roadway used by haul trucks and other vehicles, the company said in a filing.

The company said mine personnel took measures to mitigate the hazard.

MSHA terminated the Section 107(a) order later the same day, according to the company.
