Investigation Summary
A crew of employees was razing water pumping station houses. The seven houses were small, one-story brick structures, about 10 feet by 10 feet by 8 feet high. One of the employees (who was the husband of the owner and the father of the foreman) was operating a Caterpillar 950 bulldozer to raze one of the structures. According to the foreman, the employee saw a conductor in the roadway and got off the bulldozer to move it. The conductor was energized; and, as the employee backed up, he contacted the steel tracks of the bulldozer and was electrocuted.
