Investigation Summary
On March 23, 2007, Employee #1 was working on a site where another company had been hired to install and remove the steel casings and install the rebar assemblies. During the construction of foundation piers for a new building under construction an employee of the subcontractor was drilling pier holes, installing steel casings and reinforcing steel (rebar) assemblies into those casings. While preparing to rig and pick a reinforcing steel (rebar) assembly into a previously drilled 42-ft deep pier hole the crane operator swung the boom into a 7,620-volt overhead power line. Employee #1 was standing near the right rear outrigger when he was fatally electrocuted. An employee of the drilling company who was standing near the left rear outrigger was severely injured and hospitalized.
