He said: "The Regulations will apply to all premises where
liquid oil, solid fuel, gas, electricity or other fuels are used which
give rise to the emission of grit, dust or smoke."
Under the Regulations it is an offence for any plant to emit
grit or dust exceeding the statutory limit. A fine of $5,000 may be
imposed for the use of liquid fuel with a viscosity exceeding 120 seconds redwood No. 1, unless the occupier has obtained prior permission from the
Commissioner of Labour.
"The Regulations also require occupiers to install, if necessary,
gas sampling points and to maintain such points in safe and good condition.
Those who fail to comply shall be guilty of an offence and shall be liable
on conviction to a fine of $1,000," Mr. Higginson said.
