Jun. 29--PORTLAND, Ore. -- An Army expert witness claimed Raytheon cleaned up the incinerator site where more than four dozen workers were injured before the Occupational Safety and Health Administration investigated the accident.

"It's my understanding OSHA officials said they had never seen such a clean site," said Dr. Leslie Hutchinson, an occupational and environmental medicine specialist.

Hutchinson was called in by the Army to help investigate the Sept. 15, 1999, accident that injured more than four dozen construction workers at the Umatilla Chemical Depot.

Monday, he testified in U.S. District Court in Portland that welding fumes and poor ventilation in the incinerator building at the Umatilla Chemical Depot caused the workers' injuries.
