Investigation Summary
On October 30, 2005, Employee #1, whose employer is involved with drilling for foundations, was drilling holes for a tank foundation. As the holes were dug, water would accumulate at the bottom of the hole, which had to be siphoned out of the hole using a commercial trash pump. Employee #1 was working inside an excavation, when the trash pump stopped pumping. Employee #1 was told by a coworker to fill up the gas tank with gas from the truck. As Employee #1 was filling up the gas tank, a flash fire occurred and burned Employee #1's nylon and rubber gloves, which resulted in second and third degree burns to his right hand and forearm. The nylon and the rubber melted on Employee #1's right hand. Employee #1 was hospitalized. The trash pump was a Multiquip Model 3 in. Trash Pump, a rental unit.
