Investigation Summary
At approximately 8:30 a.m. on December 1, 2007, Employee #1, a superintendent, was supervising a crew of four. They were not wearing chaps, eye, and head protection. The weather was clear and approximately 40 degrees. Employee #1 was the cutter and began cutting down a 50 to 60 ft tree from its base using a chain saw. Once the cuts were made he began to wedge the tree base when it fell directly onto another tree 12 to 14 ft away. A large upper branch broke off and swung back towards Employee #1, striking him in the head. Employee #1 was killed.
