Investigation Summary
Following removal of shoring from a 14 foot deep sewer trench, Employee #1 apparently re-entered the trench for a missing tool. A portion of one of the trench walls fractured and fell, pinning Employee #1 against the intact wall. He was killed. The trench was dug through soil characterized as silty clay loam by the state soil survey. No sloping or benching of the trench walls had been employed.
