40. FORMS, IN WHICH PLANS, BOOKS OF RE-
    FERENCE, SECTIONS, AND CROSS SECTIONS
    SHALL BE PRAPARED.

Description of Plans.-Lands within deviation to be in Plan
40. Every plan required to be deposited
shall be drawn to a scale of not less than
four inches to a mile, and in case of bills
of the 1st Class, shall describe the lands
intended to be taken, and in case of Bills of
the 2nd Class, shall describe the line or situa-
tion of the whole of the work (no alternative
line or work being in any case permitted),
and the lands in or through which it is to be
made, maintained, varied, extended, or en-
larged, or through which every communica-
tion to or from the work shall be made; and
where it is the intention of the parties to
apply for powers to make any lateral devia-
tion from the line of the proposed work, the
limits of such deviation shall be defined upon
the plan, and the lands included within such
limits shall be marked thereon.

CANALS, &c.- Plans to describe Brooks, &c., to be diverted.
41. In all cases where it is proposed to
make, vary, extend, or enlarge any cut, canal,
reservoir, aqueduct, or navigation, the plan
shall describe the brooks and streams to be
directly diverted into such intended cut,
canal, reservoir, aqueduct, or navigation, or
into any variation, extension, or enlargement
thereof respectively, for supplying the same
with water.

RAILWAYS-Distances to be marked in miles, furlongs, &c.
42. In all cases where it is proposed to
make, vary, extend, or enlarge any railway,
the plan shall exhibit thereon the distances
in miles and furlongs from one of the termini,
and a memorandum of the radius of every
curve not exceeding one mile in length, shall
be noted on the plan, in furlongs and chains,
and where tunnelling, as a substitute for open
cutting, is intended, such tunnelling shall be
marked by a dotted line on the plan,

Diversion of Roads, &c.
43. If it be intended to divert, widen, or
narrow any public carriage road, navigable
river, canal, or railway, the course of such
diversion, and the extent of such widening
or narrowing, shall be marked on the plan.

6.-BOOK OF REFRRENCE.
Contents of Book of Reference,
44. The book of reference to every such
plan shall contain the names of the owners,

and occupiers of all lands or houses in the

7.-SECTIONS.
Scale of Section,
45. The section shall be drawn on the
same horizontal scale as the plan, and to a
vertical scale of not less than one inch to
every one hundred feet, and shall show the
surface of the ground marked upon the plan,
the intended level of the proposed work, the
height of every embankment, and the depth
of every cutting, and a datum horizontal line,
which shall be the same throughout the whole
length of the work, or any branch thereof re-
spectively, and shall be referred to some fixed
point (stated in writing on the section) near
some portion of such work; and, in case of
a canal, cut, navigation, or public carriage
road or railway, near either of the termini.

RIVERS.-Section to specify level of both banks.
46. In cases of Bills for improving the
navigation of any river, there shall be a
section which shall specify the levels of both
banks of such river, and where any altera-
tion is intended to be made therein, it shall
describe the same by inches and feet, or deci-
mal parts of a foot.

RAILWAYS.-Sections.
47. In every section of a railway the line
of the railway marked thereon shall corres-
pond with the upper surface of the rails.

Vertical Measures to be marked at Change of Gradient,
48. Distances on the datum line shall be
marked in miles and furlongs, to correspond
with those on the plan, a vertical measure
from the datum line to the line of the rail-
way shall be marked in feet and inches, or
decimal parts of a foot, at each change of the
gradient or inclination, and the proportion
or rate of inclination, between each such
change shall also be marked.

Height of Railway over, or depth under surface of roads, &c.,
to be marked.
49. Whenever the line of the railway is
intended to cross any public carriage road,
navigable river, canal, or railway, the height
of the railway over, or depth under the sur-
face thereof, and the height and span of
every arch, of all bridges and viaducts, by
which the railway will be carried over the
same, shall be marked in figures at every
crossing thereof; and where the railway will
be carried across any such public carriage
road or railway on the level thereof, such
crossing shall be so described on the section,
and it shall also be stated if such level will
be unaltered.

Cross Sections of Canals, Roads, &c., crossed by Railway
when level or rate of inclination altered.
50. If any alteration be intended in the
water level of any canal, or in the level or
rate of inclination of any public carriage
road or railway which will be crossed by the
line of railway, then the same shall be stated
