THE WELDER COULD NOT SWIM; NOR WAS HE WEARING ANY KIND OF PERSONAL FLOTATION DEVICE. HE COULD NOT BE FOUND AT THE END OF HIS SHIFT. HE WAS PRESUMED TO HAVE FALLEN OFF THE OPEN SIDE AND INTO THE WATER. A SEARCH WAS MADE AND THE EMPLOYEE WAS FOUND, DOWNSTREAM, TWO DAYS LATER. THE CAUSE OF DEATH WAS LISTED AS ACCIDENTAL DROWNING.
