STATUS: Residents and workers have had their first chance to question the measure in public. The current rule remains in force at the South Ventilation Line beside the old ore pass.
RECORD: The fan register and the handwritten checks at each junction. This file counts 53 air checks entered per shift; the prior count was 51.
DISPUTE: The mill’s output plan assumes the new fan runs at full power; mechanics note that the return door still sticks on cold starts.
WHY IT MATTERS: The decision concerns whether the new fan can support an added working face without weakening the old return route. The current count does not settle how the rule should allocate the cost.
NEXT: A loaded test will be repeated with the return door fitted to its replacement hinge. The clerk has marked the file SOUTH-VENTILATION-06 for the next public review.
