Around 1430 HRS of April 23, 2019, the Maintenance utility personnel were doing their routine greasing
and cleaning activity in RK# 3. While doing their activity they noticed that powder dust that accumulated in
the top portion of the area (walls, support beams, roofing trusses & wire racks) are smoldering (nagbaga)
due to the extreme heat coming from the Rotary Kiln. When the utility personnel procced to remove the
smoldering dust by sweeping and spraying with water the dust suddenly burst into fire. At around 4:30 PM
a concerned neighbor noticed and called asking questions regarding the bursting fire. Production Manager
Robert Fortich talked to the caller and explained that it is just part of routine maintenance activity. Robert
Fortich called the attention of the Safety Officer Randy Pedroza to take action and monitor the activity. The
safety officer immediately went to the scene and gave instruction to utility the personnel to avoid spraying
water directly on the smoldering dust to avoid the dust from bursting. Maintenance manager Giovanni
Tabada was also in the area monitoring and giving instructions to his personnel. At around 5:00PM the
Plant Manager Nuriatsu Tokinaga together with Robert Fortich came to the area and gave instruction to
make sure to remove the hot powder dust to prevent the cause of fire. The safety officer, maintenance
manager and QMT-MAD Filmar Pitogo remained together with 4 utility personnel to continue removing hot
