Investigation Summary
At approximately 9:30 a.m. on July 3, 1991, Employee #1 was struck by an approximately 6-ft galvanized air receiver tank that the company had purchased at an auction. A thorough examination of the tank revealed that the tank body had one welded seam down its length. The tank, which did not have a pressure-indicating gauge, was filled by an air compressor-receiver with a 0.75-in.-diameter rubber hose. The hose ran from the air pressure tank into the room where a concrete hatch machine's pneumatic controls were located. Employee #1 attached the tank to his own air compressor-receiver to get a larger volume. Apparently, the tank exploded and struck and killed Employee #1.
