Two Employees Are Injured When Excavation Wall Collapses

At approximately 12:00 p.m. on August 10, 2006, Employee #1, a foreman, and Employee #2, a laborer, were working in the middle of an excavation site that measured approximately 8-feet deep.

Employees #1 and #2 were taken to a local hospital, where they were treated for their injuries. Employee #1's injuries were more severe than Employee #2, requiring hospitalization.
