Investigation Summary
At approximately 3:30 p.m. on July 26, 2007, Employees #1 and #2, of Lametti and Sons, Inc., were working in a 90 in. diameter pipe of a storm sewer system when a half-hour rain storm occurred in the drainage area of the storm sewer. To escape the onrush of water, they attempted to reach and then ascend a shaft, but the storm caused the water in the shaft to rise from approximately 6.5 ft to 18 ft in a period of two minutes. Employees #1 and #2 drowned. Employee #1's body was found the next day. Employee #2's body was retrieved two days later at the termination point of the storm sewer system, near the spillway into the Mississippi River. The storm was later described as a fifty-year rainstorm.
