On October 10, 2014, Lance H. Laity, Contract Truck Driver, age 66, was killed at this cement operation. He was standing inside a loading rack safety cage attempting to close the center hatch on top of a bulk tanker truck. Laity was unable to close the hatch due to the position of the truck's trailer. The fill port on the trailer was not centered within the confines of the safety cage. Consequently, Laity had to raise the safety cage to access the hatch. After he raised the safety cage, Laity tripped and fell through the opening, between the raised safety cage and the rounded side of the tanker truck, approximately 11 feet to the ground below.
