| Description |
| Federal safety regulators cited Granite Archer Western, the joint venture contractor for the $266.8-million U.S. Hwy. 90 Bridge over St. Louis Bay in Mississippi for willful violation with a proposed $70,000 penalty for the June 14 column form collapse that resulted in two fatalities. “This collapse was preventable,” says Clyde Payne, director of the U.S. Dept. of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s area office in Jackson. “Willful characterization means the employer knew the requirements, was aware of the conditions and did not take any actions to rectify the situation.”
