In 2013, DOE experienced no fire-related fatalities and only one injury at Sandia National Laboratory when a technician sustained tissue damage to his left hand when a detonator he was disassembling exploded. There were 73 fire loss events in CY2013 (a 6% drop from the 78 events reported in CY2012), which resulted in an estimated $1.6 million in total DOE fire losses. These total losses were approximately 15% less than last year ($1.8 million).
