Worker Has Recovered

A 60-year-old man taken to hospital earlier this week after falling into a tub of dis-infectant chemicals at a fish farm is doing just fine. The accident happened Tuesday afternoon at Cooke Aquaculture in St. George.
Fire officials say the chemical is called Foam Force and is used to clean the plant. A spokesperson for the plant tells us, the man was checked over and released from hospital. She says the company is looking at ways to prevent a similar accident from happening again. WorkSafeNB is also investigating.
