Investigation Summary
At 11:30 a.m. on May 31, 2019, Employee #1 and a coworker, employed by a pipeline construction company, were engaged in pipeline installation work for a sewer/water treatment plant. Employee #1 was inside a 3-foot to 4-foot trench and guiding a 30-inch reinforced concrete pipe from the west end. His coworker was operating a Case cx80c trackhoe with a 12-foot nylon lifting strap attached to the equipment's boom. The boom of the trackhoe lost power, and the arm swung west 3 feet, pinning Employee #1 between the trench wall and the pipe. Employee #1 was transported to the hospital and admitted for treatment of a lacerated liver and internal bleeding.
