Abstract: On June 28, 2005, Employee #1 and a grader operator for a construction company were planting grass in a 405 ft long by 322 ft wide field. This involved placing a black tarp on the bare ground, laying down a coat of gravel to a certain level, covering the gravel with dirt, and finally planting the grass. The coworker was operating a Caterpillar motor grader, model 140G, product ID #72V16644), and was making passes east to west. After spotting Employee #1 in his rear view mirror, he began to move the grader in reverse. He felt a bump and when he put on the brake, he saw Employee #1 under the grader. The fire department was called, but Employee #1 was pronounced dead at the scene.
