The work done is noted and the consultant representative said that it could fairly easily be brought into line with HWC standards. The Committee advised the consultant to redesign their grading system so that it complies with HWC standards and to identify and map potential heritage areas. They were also advised to reconsider their system of mapping and numbering sites. They were referred to the Prince Albert survey as a good example to follow. 11.
