The air shall be analyzed by the contractor as required and a record shall be kept of such analysis.
(b) Each working chamber shall have exhaust valves, with risers extending to the upper part of the chamber if necessary. The exhaust valves shall be operated at such times as may be required and especially after a blast, and men shall not be required to resume work after a blast until the gas and smoke have cleared.
