2012 IFGC Section 404.17.3 requires a tracer wire to be installed adjacent to underground nonmetallic piping (LP).

Would a marking tape be approved in lieu of tracer wire? No listing on yeloow tape, notes "Caution GAS LINE".

I have researched and cannot find an evaluation report or approved listing for this application. The Tape is Empire, Magnatec Premium Detectable underground warning Tape.
