Employee Is Electrocuted While Closing Leaking Water Valve

Three employees of a construction company were assigned to repair a pipeline on a gas lease site that was ruptured by another company. An employee from the gas company that owned the lease was on location and noticed a water leak across the lease at another location. The gas company employee took Employee #1 from the construction company in his vehicle to where the leak was. Employee #1 looked at the situation and determined the leak could be stopped by turning off a valve. Employee #1 touched the valve, became energized, and was killed.
