Investigation Summary
On November 12, 2009, Employee #1, a hog carrier with the W F Hayward Co., was working at a construction project at Terminal B of the Sacramento International Airport. A pumping system to spray fireproofing material had just been relocated to Employee #1's location area on the third floor. Spray hoses had been reconnected after the equipment was relocated. With the equipment idling, Employee #1 observed a small leak at a hose coupling. He straddled the hose and used a sledge hammer to strike coupling lightly. The hose disconnected from the coupling and struck Employee #1's right leg. A coworker found him several feet away from the pump and summoned emergency responders. Employee #1 was hospitalized at Sutter General Hospital in Sacramento for a compound fracture of his right leg that required surgery.
