Gas, will be. systematically inspecting each bunkhouse in the. Celgar camp. ; ~The action‘for inspection came after a number workers who are presently living in the camp reported to officials and Castlegar fire crews what they believed to be a natural gas leak, October 22. Their fears werelater proved correct and workers became upset that such a potential hazard could exist in an atea considered their living quarters. The next day, eight construc- tion workers were tenminated by their respective contractor after they refused to work, on the By Leigh Rubin Creators Syndicate, Inc. ©1991 Leigh Rubi just outside the Celgar premises. Although many of the workers were willing to talk with media in regards to their alleged situation, none . would reveal their names. .“It’s gotten to the point-that if you dare say the camp is unsafe, you'll be fired,” said one worker. The union employees stated they were holding the informa- tion-line for two reasons - in sup- port of their eight brothers who had been tenninated earlier, and to send a message to Celgar offi- cials in charge of safety. “We're not going to be threat- ened or intimidated anymore. If I can provide them (Celgar and contractors) with a full days work, they can supply me with a » Safe camp,” he continued. One worker was prepared for camp. “The plan is posted i throdghout the camp on every + door in every room,” he said. Meare also stated that although the pressurization units have been shut down temporarily, everyone inside the camp is protected by an activated charcoal filter, which would decrease the level of gas to an extremely low level if it entered the camp. “So, the camp itself-is like one great big gas mask, In addition to this, we now have ‘gas response technicians (GRT’s) patrolling the area 24- hours a day.” The information-line did suc- ceed in getting the attention of local officials and Union repre- sentatives from Vancouver, who travelled to the camp that day for immediate talks. “We discussed not only that incident, but other incidents relat- ed to the camp as well,” contin- ued the project manager. “We finished the agrecing on everything - fully of media by providing 2 hand written state- ment which read: “All construc- tion trades have stopped work as of noon yesterday until such time as the camp is made safe.

We are being exposed to these gasses for 24 hours-a day, seven days a week because the. camp is not pressur- ized.
