Cal. Lab. Code § 7980 — Gassy and Extrahazardous Tunnels is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.

The division may, however, permit the use of nonpermissive equipment in a tunnel or underground mine in areas where it finds there is no longer danger from gas or other hazards.
