Investigation Summary
On November 30, 2007, Employee #1 and a coworker were on the west side of Maryland Rt 32, preparing an approximately 500 ft length of pipe to be run under the highway. They were securing 14 ft sections of pipe to one another, running the pipes south so that they would be easier to install under the roadway, as the boring was done in a southwesterly direction. The lead man was operating a piece of equipment running the pipe while Employee #1 was manually guiding the pipe along the old railroad line. He was walking across a trestle bridge when he fell off it into the water. He suffered a fractured toe and a spinal injury, for which he was hospitalized. Employee #1 was not using any fall protection while crossing the bridge.
