加州职业安全卫生部门(Cal/OSHA)对Blackbird Mountain Guides公司处以151,300美元罚款1。该公司于2024年2月17日在内华达山脉Frog Lake和Castle Peak附近组织的登山滑雪活动中触发雪崩,造成9人死亡1,这是加州现代历史上最为致命的雪崩灾难1。当日参与活动的初始登山队伍共15人,其中6人获救1。
罚款中最大一项为81,000美元,针对该公司在雪崩危险等级为高的情况下仍在雪崩地形中活动的行为1。另外五项违规涉及培训不足和未及时报告三名员工死亡1。Blackbird Mountain Guides所有人Zeb Blais已提出上诉,并声称"导游将追求知识和卓越视为终身责任,这次活动中的导游以谨慎和专业精神对待他们的工作"1。刑事调查仍在进行中1。
California's Division of Occupational Safety and Health has assessed $151,300 in penalties against Blackbird Mountain Guides for safety violations connected to a catastrophic avalanche on February 17, 2024, that claimed nine lives near Frog Lake in the Sierra Nevada.1 The largest single fine of $81,000 targeted the company's decision to operate in avalanche terrain while danger levels were rated high.1 Five additional violations were cited for inadequate staff training and failure to promptly report the deaths of three company guides.1
The incident occurred during a backcountry skiing operation involving 15 participants, of whom six were rescued.1 The company has appealed the penalties and maintains full compliance with safety protocols, with owner Zeb Blais asserting that "guides pursue knowledge and excellence as a lifelong responsibility and the guides on this trip approached their work with care and professionalism."1 A criminal investigation into the incident remains ongoing.1
