Investigation Summary
At approximately 11:30 p.m. on February 22, 2008, Employee #1, a food technologist, and Employee #2, a maintenance mechanic, were walking near a CIP-ketchup pressurized pipe line. This line was being worked on to clear a blockage and a clamp cover on a pipe had been loosened to release pressure. Hot pressurized water, 200 degrees F, was being used. As Employee #1 and #2 were walking, water rushed out from the loosened pipe. The area was not blocked off or otherwise marked to indicate to stay away. Employee #1 was hospitalized for burns, and Employee #2 was treated and released for burns.
