Investigation Summary
At 8:00 p.m. on November 16, 2015, an employee was descending a portable wood ladder from a tanker barge to the dock of a fueling terminal below. Possibly caused by a wake, the tanker barge surged or swayed. The ladder fell from the dock where its base was resting. The employee fell into the water without being protected by a personal floatation device. The employee was found the following morning in 35 feet of water, drowned.
