Cal. Pub. Res. Code § 3307 — Unreasonable Waste of Gas is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.

If it appears that gas is being produced from any oil well or wells in quantities exceeding a reasonable proportion to the amount of oil produced from the same well or wells, even though it is shown that such excess gas is being used in the generation of light, heat, power, or any other industrial purpose, the supervisor shall hold that such excess production of gas is unreasonable waste.
