    Teck Cominco’s Kivcet furnace expected to resume production in second half of March Teck Cominco News Release # 04-06-TC
    Vancouver, B.C. -- A preliminary internal inspection of the KIVCET lead furnace and boiler systems at the company’s Trail Operations, which incurred damage as a result of an explosion on Monday, February 2, 2004, has resulted in an estimated schedule of repair that will see the furnace resume operation in the second half of March.

    The full investigation into the cause of the explosion continues. The cost of repair and the cause of the incident will not be known until such time as this investigation has been completed. The company’s operations, research and safety staff, as well as safety representatives from the United Steelworkers of America Local 480, the Workers Compensation Board and the provincial boiler inspection office are participating in the investigation. The explosion did not result in any injuries to employees.
