Investigation Summary
On August 20, 2002, Employee #1 was part of a crew of iron workers who were assigned to shorten and change the discharge point of a truck dump conveyor from an old chip conveyor over to a new chip conveyor. They were installing the head section of the chip system and Employee #1 was stepping from a 12-ft 8-in.-high catwalk on the west side of the head section across an approximately 16-in.-wide gap onto the chain return pan, which was approximately 2 ft 4 in. lower than the catwalk. When his foot landed on the pan, he apparently slipped, lost his balance and his grip, and fell backward off the pan. Employee #1 suffered head injuries, possibly from striking his head against a lower conveyor as he fell. He died as a result of his injuries. No fall protection was required because the crew was working at heights below 15 ft.
