Hendersonville Times-News
An investigation is still in the works to examine the Jan. 13 incident that killed one man and injured four others in a retaining wall collapse at the Hajoca parking lot in Hendersonville.
This type of investigation can last anywhere from a few weeks to six months, according to Jennifer Haigwood, director of Communications and Policy Development for the N.C. Department of Labor.
On the day of the incident, Henderson County Attorney Russ Burrell confirmed that the county did not receive an application, or issue a permit, for the project.
As a general rule, both new construction and repair of retaining walls over 4 feet in height require an engineered design, and a permit granted by the County Inspections Department based on the design. The wall that collapsed was estimated to be 10 to 12 feet tall.
The city of Hendersonville identified the worker who was killed Wednesday in a retaining wall collapse as 37-year-old Marcelino Godofredo Rendon Hernandez.
Emergency services personnel were dispatched to the wall collapse with entrapment in the Hajoca parking lot at 1027 Spartanburg Highway at 9:30 a.m. When first responders arrived, they encountered a retaining wall that had fallen and trapped construction crew members underneath.
First responders determined there were five contracted masonry crew members with Robert Crawford Masonry in the area of the wall collapse. One crew member, who escaped the collapse with minor injuries, relayed information that four additional crew members were working with him. Emergency services personnel conducted rescue efforts to extricate three men, followed by recovery efforts to retrieve the man who died when the wall collapsed.
