Employee dies after fall into log flume

Employee #1's pulpwood truck was being unloaded in the #1 wood yard. He had driven his 1979 International Transtar truck forward so that the fourth and final section of the trailer could be unloaded. The unloading equipment was a 250 Barko. After the trailer was unloaded, the employee could not be found. All the equipment in the area was shut down and the employee was found in a drum debarker. After the last section of the trailer was unloaded, the front wheels of the tractor were within 6 to 8 in. of the edge of the log flume, which was 10 ft deep. Apparently, Employee #1 fell into the flume. He died.
