Attractive nuisance

A manufacturing establishment may have on its property some object which would be highly attractive as a place for children to play. Two examples would be a quarry pit and a sand pile. An object of this type is known as an attractive nuisance, and the concern may be liable for injuries to children if the injuries are a result of their playing around or in the object. The liability would apply even though the children were obviously trespassing. High fences or some other effective safety measure should be used to keep children from gaining admittance to an attractive nuisance. [Pg.263]

I don t suppose many love yellow star thistle except perhaps the bees attracted by its bright saffron-colored flowers or the honey lovers addicted to the bees sweet product. Most find this weed a nuisance and there is no easy way to remove it. It has taken me many years of burning, mowing, hoeing and replanting with perennial grasses, to restore the old pasture. Today it is full of purple needlegrass, blue wildrye, and California poppies, native species that used to blanket the valley before human activity and invasive weeds all but obliterated them. [Pg.115]

Thefcphosphine oxide can be reduced back to the phosphine (for example, with Cl- SiH) while still bound to the polymer and the polymer-bound reagent can be used again. Separation of Ph3P=0 from alkene products after a Wittig reaction can be quite a nuisance so the ease of work-up alone makes this an attractive procedure. [Pg.1474]

The notice will specify the date by which the notice is to be complied with and may also specify the remedial action to be taken. Appeals against the notice can be made within 21 days. Failure to comply with the notice can attract a fine on conviction of up to 20 000. ft is a defence to a prosecution to demonstrate that the best practicable means had been used to prevent or counteract the effects of the nuisance. A private individual can start a proceeding in a magistrates court and, if the court is satisfied that a nuisance exists, it can require the accused to abate or terminate it. The court may also specify the remedy to be followed. [Pg.933]

Section 11.7 recommends that temporary decorative loads such as Christmas tree lights should be supplied at SELV. In some cases, this compromises the attractiveness of the decorations and there is a temptation to supply them at 240 V to achieve the desired brilliance and luminance. In that case, if the lighting fixtures can be accessed by the public, there will be a need to provide RCD protection to minimise the risk of electric shock injuries, although the potential problems arising from nuisance tripping will need to be considered. [Pg.173]
