Investigation Summary
Employees #1 and #2 were in a 7 1/2 ft deep by 5 ft wide trench when it caved in. The soil was saturated with an excessive amount of groundwater, and the movement of the soil and water buried Employee #1 to his shoulders and Employee #2 to his waist. Employee #1 was killed. Employee #2 injured his left arm when he tried to prevent the moving soil from burying Employee #1, his boss. Employee #2 had warned Employee #1 that the trench could cave in at any time, saying "We should not even be in here!" The trench had been dug by a Case 5800 backhoe equipped with a 24 in. shovel.
