Confined Space on a Farm
"There are many confined spaces on a farm. Underground manure pits or tanks, open manure pits, silos, septic tanks and wells are examples. Access to confined spaces is usually restricted. Often, there is only one way in and one way out, through a small opening. Natural ventilation is usually poor."Source: Saskatchewan Labour
