Investigation Summary
On August 10, 2005, Employee #1, an irrigator, was moving and connecting 10-inch sprinkler pipes in a cotton field. Upon completion of the installation, water pressure was restored to the system for testing. A clamp failed, causing a 15-foot section of the pipe to detach itself and strike Employee #1 in the left leg. He was hospitalized and treated for a fractured left leg.
