Narrative

An employee was delivering propane to a tank when the pressure relief valve popped off due to pressure buildup and struck the employee. The liquid propane then sprayed the employee, who fell approximately 10 feet from the equipment to the decking floor. The employee sustained multiple contusions, lacerations, and first and second degree burns.
