Description
McDEVITT, Chief Justice I BACKGROUND AND PRIOR PROCEEDINGS Chauncey Buffington began to work at Potlatch Corporation's Rutledge
plant in June of 1959. The noise levels at the plant to which he was initially exposed were minimal. In 1970 or 1971, Buffington
switched jobs and started to grade and sort lumber, which required him to stand within thirty feet of five machines called
"planers." Because these planers emitted a high level of noise, Buffington wore ear plugs. One day in 1972, Buffington noticed hearing loss, tinnitus, and pain in his ears. He allegedly continued to experience the
tinnitus and hearing loss although the pain subsided within a week. Buffington stated that he consulted with Dr. Dean Smart
in 1972. Dr. Smart apparently did not inform Buffington that his hearing loss was work-related, although this cannot be verified
since Dr. Smart's medical records relating to Buffington subsequently were destroyed. In 1975, an audiologist diagnosed Buffington
as suffering from severe bilateral hearing loss, for which the only remedy is a hearing aid.
