Investigation Summary
A three-person crew working for a contractor was refurbishing a tank at an electric power generation station. One of the employees was painting inside the tank while his supervisor watched him. He suddenly slumped over and lost consciousness. An emergency medical services team administered cardio-pulmonary resuscitation, but the employee did not regain consciousness. An autopsy revealed that he died of ischemic heart disease (a heart attack brought on by hardening of the arteries). The tank entry had been performed under a permit system. The tank had been completely isolated and ventilated, and atmospheric monitoring had been performed.
