Consol Energy officials that dive and rescue teams have recovered the body of a missing worker at the Robinson Run Preperation Plant.

The body of Markel J. Koon, 58, of Shinnston was recovered during a successful pipe dive recovery. Crew pulled his body to the surface after entering the cab of a bulldozer that was submerged in a slurry pond at the plant.
