Wind Power Plant Closed to Honor Fallen Worker

Posted on Wednesday, July 7th, 2010 at 8:09 am    

The Grand Forks Herald reports that LM Wind Power closed their Grand Forks plant to honor an employee who died in a work accident. The Herald writes that 42-year-old Joe Schaff became “pinned between two pieces of heavy equipment for about three minutes Thursday in the plant that manufactures blades for wind turbines.”

After being removed from the two pieces of equipment, emergency responders tried to revive him. Police say, at Altru Hospital, Schaff was pronounced dead.

OSHA is in the process of investigating the accident.
