supplies shall be encased in suitable sanitary receptacles designed to be
reasonably dust-tight and moisture proof. In addition to the supplies in the
receptacles, blankets, splints, and properly constructed stretchers in good
condition shall be provided at every mine. All of the first aid supplies shall
be available for use by any person employed at the mine. No first aid supplies
shall be removed or diverted without authorization except in case of injury at
the mine.
