Paper Mill Settles Lockout-Tagout Fatality Case after Years of Appeals
In January 2004, 38-year-old Mark Greenland, an employee of Longview Fibre Paper and Packaging Inc., died after being caught inside a paper cutter when another employee inadvertently started it up. A Washington State Department of Labor and Industries (WSDLI) investigation initially resulted in a proposed penalty of $203,100 and company citations for three willful violations and one "serious repeat" violation of lockout-tagout procedures. The company appealed. Now, a settlement agreement has been reached.

Favorite Book 2007
The Toyota Way is my favorite book for 2007. It had so many good ideas that I could not keep up and ended up reading it again and even buying the Field Book to go along with it.
Download Elegant Solutions from Change This which provides some highlights of the Toyota Production System. Too many ideas that are applicable to contractors to even count!
