An employee was helping to stack barge covers when the top cover's clamp became caught in the D-ring on the cover below it, preventing proper stacking. The employee went to assist another employee in removing the catch and asked the crane operator to lift the top cover again. During this action, his left index finger was caught in the clamp, lacerating it. He required surgery.
