Adventure Activities Licensing Authority
Safety Alert Number 1 - Mine Exploration, Gas Hazards Issued: 24 July 2008
Knotlow Pollution -
Situation improved (at last!). A
quick analysis of records for the past twelve months, recently recovered from
the base of Knotlow Climbing Shaft, show that for all intents and purposes the
pollution that has plagued this popular system for decades has finally
disappeared! Air quality was variously reported as "good", "no bad smells", and
"no problems" on all the 23 entries in the log book. The logger at the base of
"Fourways" has been taken out by the Environment Agency and the securing chain
will be removed in due course. The results during the period of the test of
water quality were inconclusive. For more information check
