Abstract: At approximately 9:30 a.m. on November 14, 2013, Employee #1, a 53-year-old male project manager with Bhi Plumbing, Heating and Air Conditioning dba: Reddi Rooter, was preparing to drill while attempting to drill a new seepage pit when he spliced the wire rope, which, in an effort to make the wire rope longer, would attach to a four-foot diameter steel bucket shaft on the drill rig. The connection at the spliced wire rope section failed and caused the bucket to swing back into Employee #1 resulting in a broken tibia and fibula on the left side. Employee #1 was hospitalized for approximately five days as a result of the incident. Employee #1 had been employed by the company for approximately one month and a half prior to the incident.
