Investigation Summary
At approximately 9:00 a.m. on February 21, 2008, Employee #1 was driving a 32,000 Lbs landfill compactor (Rex Chainbelt, Inc., Model Number 3-30 Pactor/Trashmaster, Serial Number HUR211) to spread soil in a low spot on a construction site. The wheels on the compactor were of the segmented sheepsfoot-type. When the compactor's blade caught a rock, it stopped abruptly. Employee #1 was ejected from the compactor and landed on the ground, head-first. He was hospitalized at Riverside Community Hospital and subsequently transferred to Sharp Memorial Hospital for treatment of a neck fracture. The compactor was equipped with a functioning seat belt, but Employee #1 was not wearing it at the time of the accident.
