Investigation Summary

The work was being conducted in preparation for the installation of a new boiler which also required new exhaust ventilation to be installed.

One of these openings, measuring 30-in. by 36-in., was located approximately 19-in. from the gas pipe being cleaned by the employees. The openings had been completed on July 24, 2008, and were covered with black polyethylene. While cleaning the pipe Employee #1 fell approximately 34.5-ft through the opening to the concrete floor of the boiler room. Employee #1 was killed.
