Scenario: Increased Pollutant LevelsOnline version A conversation between a PHI and an ice arena operator by Mike Scott Public Health Inspector I took air samples of CO and NO2 from the player’s bench after you flooded the ice for approximately 15 minutes. The nitrogen dioxide concentration was elevated to 0.5 ppm. Please increase the mechanical ventilation and open some exterior doors. I will continue taking air samples to ensure NO2 concentrations reach recommended levels. In the meantime, can you please provide copies of ice resurfacer and edger maintenance records, as well as the ventilation maintenance records? Ice Arena Operator I will direct staff to increase ventilation while I find those records for you. Public Health Inspector Thank you. These records will help with the risk assessment. Let’s ensure that the ice resurfacing equipment has been tuned and maintained with a recent exhaust emissions test, and that ventilation systems are working properly. I will schedule a re-inspection to ensure air pollutants can remain within recommended levels.
