Investigation Summary
At approximately 11:30 a.m. on October 18, 2004, a crew of five workers was engaged in the task of underground gas line work. While working near the edge of an 8-ft-deep by 4-ft-wide by 8.5-ft-long trench, Employee #1 was trying to release air from riser and stepped on a top horizontal brace of the shoring system. The brace slid away, and he fell 7 ft down when the shoring system collapsed. There was no ladder available inside trench for easy egress and shoring was not properly and tightly installed for protection. Employee #1 fractured his ribs and was hospitalized.
