Incident on Mar 19, 2007 (fatal): Employee asphyxiated when trench caves-in
On March 19, 2007, Employee #1 was working as a helper inside an excavation for a sewer line on a new residential construction project. He was told by the forem an/backhoe operator to clear some dirt inside the trench. As he reached for a sh ovel on the opposite side of the trench, the soil/spoil collapsed on him. He was asphyxiated. The trench was about 2 feet wide, with an estimated depth of 4 fee t to 5 feet or slightly more (depth was difficult to measure because the spoil/s oil was partially covering the trench area). The trench had no shoring and the s oil showed characteristics of sloping downward in an angular array. The only wit ness was the foreman. The backhoe was about 5 feet away from where Employee #1 w as standing.
