Investigation Summary
At approximately 11:15 a.m. on March 2, 2013, an employee was engaged in the removal of old conveyor systems from an abandoned saw mill. He was working from a catwalk, adjoining the roof and a tank, setting shackles for the later removal of the catwalk by crane. His last memory of the accident was reaching for a shackle. He fell approximately 30 ft. through the roof of a "shed-like" structure below him. The employee had no memory of the incident. His last memory of the accident was reaching for a shackle. He was not sure how or where he came to be outside the guardrails. The site supervisor believed that the employee may have dropped a tool and jumped through or over the guardrails to the roof below and fell through. By all accounts, the employee was not working on the roof he fell through. Also, by all accounts the guardrails of the catwalk were of adequate height, design, and were structurally sound. The employee was hospitalized and treated for fractured ribs and one unspecified arm.
