Investigation Summary
At approximately 11:45 p.m. on December 27, 2006, Employee #1, #2 and #3 were working with bacon curing ovens. A pressure relief valve in the ammonia-based cooling system failed, causing a release. All three employees were exposed, and taken to a local hospital, where they were treated for respiratory problems and released the same day. Employee #4 was sent back into this area, after evacuation, to operate the bacon curing ovens. Employee #4 required medical treatment the following day.
