Investigation Summary
Employee #1, of a construction company, was operating a bulldozer. A coworker was pulling a new water line behind his pick-up through knee high, very dry grass, when the grass ignited. The driver of the truck escaped. Employee #1 attempted to create a fire break, with his bulldozer, between the fire and the well site. The fire moved very rapidly due to dry, windy conditions and engulfed the bulldozer. Employee #1 was burned to death in the cab.
