DRUMMOND — The U.S. Department of Labor has proposed $142,800 in penalties against a construction company for not properly protecting employees working in trenches in Drummond.

The department's Occupational Safety and Health Administration said Tuesday it found violations at two construction sites operated by Enid-based Luckinbill Inc.

OSHA found violations including failure to properly slope soil so it would not collapse inward and failure to ensure employees were wearing high visibility vests.

Hector Covarrubias, safety manager for Luckinbill, did not immediately return a call for comment.
