Contractors Fined Over $300,000 for Crane Accidents

According to the USA Today,
A federal agency hit three construction firms with penalties totaling $313,500 on Monday for alleged safety violations leading to a tower crane collapse that killed seven people last March.

The citations by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration named Reliance Contractors Group, the general contractor; Rapetti Rigging Services, Inc., the crane erector; and Joy Contractors Inc., the concrete subcontractor on the project.

And this is before the lawsuits....
