Investigation Summary
At 1:30 p.m. on April 27, 2015, an employee was working in a single point boatswain chair which was located on the northwest side of a 110 foot high Horton Type Water Tower. Several company-made boatswain chairs were located along the top rail of the guardrail and anchored by large open hooks. The boatswain chairs used a block and tackle which required the user to tie a knot to the tackle portion to secure the chair. The employee was struggling to move the scaffold vertically and disconnected his vertical lifeline. The employee fell approximately 90 feet to the ground when the hoist line for the boatswain chair broke and he was killed by blunt force trauma to the head.
