Investigation Summary
At approximately 2:00 p.m. on March 18, 1993, Employee #1 and a coworker were laying a section of sewer pipe in an excavation 8 feet deep by 10 feet wide by 20 feet long. The walls were vertical and no protective system was used. As Employee #1 reached for an instrument to ensure that the pipe was on the correct grade, the east wall caved in and buried him. Employee #1 sustained a broken sternum, a broken femur, and two collapsed lungs for which he was hospitalized. The coworker was unharmed.
