Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was cleaning the inside of blower fan ducts at Webster/Alameda Portal of Oakland-Alameda Tube using Chevron 350-B solvent applied to the duct wall with a Hudson sprayer. The fan damper was closed, creating a confined space. Because of an excursion exposure to undetermined vapor concentration of petroleum distillate (naphtha), she collapsed and had to be rescued.
