Five Workers Die in Underground Pipe The Denver Post
Five Excel Energy employees were trapped underground at a hydroelectric plant in George Town, Colorado. The workers were stranded after chemicals erupted in flames. Rescuers made contact with all five men within ten minutes of the accident. Six hours later the rescue team confirmed that the five workers had died. Excel was very sympathetic to the workers' families and are making every effort to improve safety at the hydroelectric plants.
This article deeply saddened me. I wonder why energy corporation like Excel Energy don't confirm safer working environments for its employees. Do tragedies like this have to happen in order for safety to be improved? I am very sympathetic for the families of these workers.
