In locations with potentially explosive atmos-
pheres, obey all posted signs to turn off wireless
devices such as your phone or other radio
equipment.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres
include fuelling areas, below decks on boats,
fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities,
areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
Blasting Caps and Areas
Power off your mobile phone or wireless device
when in a blasting area or in areas where signs
are posted to power off “two-way radios” or
“electronic devices” to avoid interfering with
blasting operations.
