Investigation Summary
At approximately 3:30 p.m. on March 30, 2017, Employee #1, a laborer, was strapping down a 30-inch diameter by 49 foot long steel pipe bore casing, weighing approximately 12,000 pounds onto a flatbed trailer. He was attempting to install a strap to secure the pipe on the flatbed trailer. The pipe casing was connected to an excavator with a 16 foot sling and was in the center of the trailer supported by a combination of metal and wood cross bars. Dunnage was not used to stabilize the pipe and it fell off of the trailer onto Employee #1. Employee #1s hips and lower back were crushed and he was killed.
