Employee #1 fell into a river while climbing to his work area beneath a bridge. He was not wearing a life jacket or fall protection. The company co-owner threw Employee #1 a rope, but he refused it, saying that he would swim to the river bank approximately 240 ft away. The employee yelled for help approximately 10 ft away from the bank and submerged. He drowned before help could arrive. The body was recovered the next day.
