Investigation Summary
Employee #1 and his coworkers were in the process of emptying a grain storage bin that was full with rice. The rice was to be loaded onto a trailer truck for delivery to a rice company. The rice was not flowing properly from the bin so Employee #1 entered the bin through a manhole, located at the top of the bin, while the auger system was operating. While standing on top of the rice, presumably near the center well, Employee #1 used a shovel to attempt to clear the blockage and when doing so, Employee #1 became engulfed in the rice. Rescue personnel were contacted and retrieved Employee #1, where he was pronounced dead at the scene.
