656—Ventilation plan

        (1)         The mine operator of an underground mine must ensure that a plan of the ventilation system for the mine is prepared.

Maximum penalty:

            (a)         in the case of an individual—$6 000;

            (b)         in the case of a body corporate—$30 000.

        (2)         The ventilation plan must show—

            (a)         the direction, course and volume of air currents; and

            (b)         the position of all air doors, stoppings, fans, regulators and other ventilation plant and structures and ventilation monitoring devices at the mine.

Note—

Subdivision 3 (comprising regulations 657 to 663) appears in some corresponding WHS laws but does not apply in this State because there is no underground coal mining activity.

Note—

The requirements of this Division are in addition to the requirements in relation to emergency plans under Division 4 of Chapter 3 Part 2.
