Sad, but it isn't a surprise! I think they've averaged about one a year for the last few years!!! God pray it was fast and painless,sad ,sad,sad. E.S.
Anyone hear anything about the accident in hay,washington? I guess it was a mountain power crew working for inland? Any info would be good.
just because you cover a pile of sh*t with syrup doesn't make it a pancake.

sounds very similar to an accident they had in AUG 2008
Seems like this company having fatalities at a far to often clip! I remember a poster here whos good fried died at this company not to long ago. And Im sure we all remember the horrific video of Salt Lake City. A couple posters knew those young men to. Everyone cries foul when pike has fatalities this often that is bullshit union or non when a company has brothers getting killed that often there should be outrage and should be looked into!!!
i get what your saying linehand. I just don't get why these guys can't get their act together. i have had some of their crews do a little dock work for us and they didn't do the best quality of work for us.
BUT, on the other hand, we had OUR first fatality 2 years ago, and i hope it never EVER happens again to where we get a reputation for doing crappy work, cutting corners, etc. i know its a corny saying, but
"we are our brothers keeper"

Still too many, but I believe Ontario has well over 100 utilities and contract companies.
Talked to our construction rep. yesterday, and he said the crew was transferring highline over hot distro, and made contact. The highline was grounded to a down guy, and the squeak on the ground was doing some come up, come off to move it, so he got contact. Guess he is ok. Linemen are in some trouble though.
is not acceptable. I don't give a damn how many people you have workin for you.
