Clarke con- cluded that charges laid by the Ministry of Labour under the Occupational Health and Safety Act against Minnova's Winston Lake Division should be dis- missed. The charges were laid fol- lowing an inspection in Decem- ber, 1990. The Ministry charged that Minnova had not provided the required flow of air to a specific work site at the mine.

The maximum allowable brake horsepower in that section was 250. Judge Clarke found that only a dozer, rated at 70 brake horsepower, was operating in the area. Determined by airflow Allowable brake horsepower in a workplace is determined on the basis of airflow. Regula- tions provide that 100 cubic feet per minute of air flow is required for each brake horse- power of the diesel engine or engines operating in each workplace.

"This decision confirms that we are indeed doing things right when it comes to ventila- tion." Ventilation systems at Win- ston Lake have been developed in concert with overall mine development. Since 1986 the total volume of air going into the mine has been increased three times; from 165,000 cubic feet per minute to the present level of 320,000 cubic feet per minute. A new air exhaust raise was completed in May, 1991, at a cost of $1 million.
