Investigation Summary
At 12:30 p.m. on August 17, 2015, an employee raising the basket on the aerial lift attempted to access the face of the smoke stack. The employee had positioned the aerial lift on a section of the ground that was at approximately 10 degrees of incline. The employee had placed the counter-weight on the down hill side and began to raise the boom/basket. As the basket reached a point approximately 45 feet above the ground and nearly straight up the machine began to fall over backwards. The basket struck the ground and the employee was thrown approximately 16 feet. The employee suffered a fatal skull fracture/head injury when he struck his head on the pavement.
