Narrative

On June 24, 2025, an employee and their crew were working in a deenergized power line right-of-way to retire an old line and wooden poles. The employee was operating a digger derrick and the two other crew members were assisting on the ground. The employee removed the 40-foot wooden pole from its hole and was putting it down when it came down at an angle and swung into an employee, striking the right side of his head and face. The employee suffered a head injury that required hospitalization.
