Investigation Summary
At 8:30 p.m. on July 21, 2021, an employee working as a machine operator for a dog and cat food manufacturer was servicing a production line in Building 47. The employee climbed to the batching mezzanine to change the supply line to another bin. The employee removed a hose while the product was being transported. Trace minerals being propelled by the 80 pound per square inch (psi) hose were released into the area causing a dust-out. The employee was hospitalized to treat damage to his respiratory system including his lungs and trachea.
