Investigation Summary
On June 25, 1993, Employee #1, of Pamar Enterprises Inc., was a member of a crew installing sewer pipe for a residential subdivision. He and another employee entered an excavation to install an approximately 8 foot section of pipe which had a fitting for a 6 inch diameter house lead on the end. The excavation had a trench box positioned 4 to 7 feet above the bottom of the excavation in order to accommodate the house lead. Employee #1 told the coworker to go get a plastic pipe cover for the end of the pipe while the backhoe dug further. Within minutes after the coworker left the excavation, a cave-in occurred. Employee #1 was rescued from the excavation and transported to a local hospital in critical condition. He later died. The employer received a willful citation for improperly maintaining the trench box.
