Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was working at a construction site during the installation of a new underground water line. The 18 ft long by 20 in. diameter ductile iron pipes were wrapped in heavy duty plastic material. A nylon strap choker sling attached to a backhoe with its bucket removed was being used to lift the 1,500 lb pipe sections. A suspended pipe was being swung into position to be lowered into the trench when the choker sling slipped on the plastic material covering the pipe. One end of the pipe fell and struck a pile of excavated materials; the other end spun around and struck Employee #1. He was killed.
