Détails de l'exception

The instrument is a proposal under Section 12(20) of O. Reg. 681/94, a proposal to issue a direction under subsection 148(5) of the Mining Act.

Pursuant to subsections 148 (3), (4) and (5) of the Mining Act, the Minister of Energy, Northern Development and Mines (the Minister) may direct the employees and agents of the Ministry of Energy, Northern Development and Mines (ENDM) to do everything practicable, or to do such work and take such action as may be specified in the directions, in respect of the prevention, elimination and amelioration of the adverse effect where the Minister has reasonable grounds for believing that a mine hazard is causing or is likely to cause an immediate and dangerous adverse effect. Pursuant to subsection 148 (4) (d), the Minister of ENDM may order such work where there is no proponent of the mine hazard and the mine hazard is located on Crown land or on prescribed land.

The former Capitol Mine (AMIS 03615) is located adjacent to a primary road in Haultain township, approximately 4km from the village of Gowganda. The Capitol Mine hazards consist of two shafts and a crown pillar. Given the site conditions at the Capitol Mine posed an imminent risk to public safety, Minister’s Directions were issued to prevent, eliminate and ameliorate the adverse effect.
