Narrative

On September 4, 2023, maintenance staff were working on a 4-inch resin pipe for a silo. A ladder was used to lift and swing the pipe into the assembly. The pipe was tied off to the main lift with a rope. A technician prepared to shift the pipe into place when the injured employee walked over to ask a question. As the technician looked down, the pipe shifted and swung, striking the injured employee. The employee sustained a concussion.
