The employer shall ensure that no employee approaches or takes any conductive object closer to any electrically energized overhead power lines and parts than prescribed in Table R-2, unless: a. Located along the powerline easement in the vicinity of 11250 Township Road 67, Killbuck, Ohio: On or about September 06, 2023, employees were throwing a conductive metal roller attached to bull-line pull woven locatable tape over the fiber optic support strand located approximately 5 feet below an energized 7,200-volt powerline.
