Investigation Summary
At approximately 11:00 p.m. on January 29, 2014, Employee #1 was cleaning up from a day of production in a sawmill. As part of clean up, Employee #1 would scoop sawdust and throw it onto the long belt conveyor for transfer out to the dust trailer. The long belt conveyor started to slip due to ice buildup. Employee #1 threw salt onto the conveyor to help melt ice. As he did this, his arm was caught by the conveyor and amputated. Employee #1 died later on from his injuries sustained in the amputation.
