L.A. Metro Rail Subcontractor Fined: The Occupational Safety and Health Administration fined a subcontractor working on the Los Angeles metro rail project $10,000 for knowingly placing employees in danger despite warnings from safety engineers. OSHA said Tecumseh Construction Co. in early March allowed employees to work at the bottom of a 12-foot-deep excavation without protection against a cave-in. Tecumseh officials couldn’t be reached for comment. The company may contest the fine or pay it and correct violations within 15 days.
