Revised Map 29 does not depict the cross - sections that are discussed in this <br />section of the permit and the contour lines do not show adequate detail to depict <br />the post mine topography. Also, the legend does not cover all the symbols used <br />to depict features on the map. Please see the adequacy review section Rule <br />2.05.4 — Reclamation Plan above, specifically item 41. <br />
