On November 3, 2003, a 38-year-old male laborer working for a subcontractor died when the 8-foot unshored walls of a trench he was working in collapsed, burying him. The Kentucky Fatality Assessment Control & Evaluation (FACE) program became aware of the fatality on November 4, 2003. A site visit was made on November 10, 2003, when interviews were conducted with a representative from the construction company, coroner and local police. Photographs were taken of the scene. The subcontractor chose not to participate in the FACE program. It is unknown what safety training was available for the decedent and if so, whether or not the decedent was trained in trench safety.
