| DESCRIPTION | THE PLANT - The crib hangs suspended above its final resting place. It must be very heavy : note that even with the chains holding it, the rebar below it is slightly bowed. Of particular interest is the employee in front of the crib. He is wearing diving apparatus, prepared to go into the water below to adjust the fittings, etc. The man next to him in the dark clothing is holding the diver's two lifelines : his oxygen hose in the right hand, his tether rope in the left. None of the employees are identified. |
