Concrete company Femo Construction Ltd. is appealing a WorkSafeBC penalty related to a tower crane hitting a high-voltage power line at a Coquitlam construction site.

A Burnaby construction company is appealing a $168,000 WorkSafeBC fine for an incident that saw a tower crane come into contact with a high-voltage power line at a Coquitlam worksite earlier this year.

No one was injured, according to the reports, and the crane was taken out of use "immediately" until it could be re-certified as safe by a professional engineer.On the day of the incident, an inspector requested copies of Femo's lockout procedures for the crane's remote control and the company's crane collision response plan.

The inspector concluded Femo had not had the required "work arrangement and procedures" in place to work close to high-voltage electrical equipment at the Coquitlam worksite.
