On March 27, 2017, Mosaic Fertilizer, LLC (“Mosaic Fertilizer”), a subsidiary of The Mosaic Company, was issued an imminent danger order by the U.S. Department of Labor, Mine Safety and Health Administration, under section 107(a) of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977, to stop certain activities allegedly being conducted by a third party at Mosaic Fertilizer's Four Corners mine in Bradley, Florida: a truck driver for Liquid Transport Corp., a third party unrelated to Mosaic Fertilizer, was allegedly standing on top of a tanker trailer approximately 12 feet off the ground without fall protection. The driver had been given hazard training when he entered the mine and fall protection was available. The driver was removed from the top of the trailer. No one was injured as a result of the incident.
