Investigation Summary
At 5:15 a.m. on July 17, 2018, an employee was driving a loaded 1973 Mack truck with 4500 gallon water tank eastbound uphill on a single lane logging haul road. A loaded chip truck was traveling the opposite direction. The employee in the water truck traveled in a reverse direction down the hill. The right side rear dual axle traveled approximately 6 feet up on the embankment on the south side of the haul road causing the truck to rollover to the left in the roadway and continue rolling down the embankment on the north side of the road. The water truck collided with multiple trees and stumps as it rolled which damaged the roof of vehicle cab. The truck came to rest on its drivers side approximately 87 feet below the roadway. The employee sustained blunt force trauma and died.
