    Contractor appeals OSHA citations over building collapse - AP Wire, Kansas City Star
    SPRINGFIELD, Mo. - A contractor is appealing two citations issued after a building collapsed and injured two construction workers.

    The Occupational Safety and Health Administration fined Springfield contractor Morelock-Ross Builders Inc. $3,600 in September, claiming a building that collapsed in April was not designed to support a second-floor concrete slab that was being installed and that the company failed to tell workers to stay out of the building during the concrete pour.
