Investigation Summary
On December 20, 2007, Employee #1 was working for a logging company performing felling operation of an 80-ft tall poplar tree with a 20-in. diameter. The poplar tree was felled into another tree with a diameter of 6-in. that was approximately 33 ft in front of the felling path of the poplar tree. The poplar tree logged against that 6-in. diameter tree, then slid down it diagonally striking Employee #1 in the lower part of his back pinning him to the ground. A coworker witnessed the accident and used a front end loader to remove the tree from Employee #1. Employee #1 was pronounced dead at the scene.
