  "text": "(1) Where the map of a drainage board is required to be amended by the deletion of any particulars shown thereon, the drainage board shall, subject to paragraph (2), prepare a fresh edition of the map, or, where the map comprises more than one sheet, of any sheet thereof, showing the particulars which would be required to be shown if the fresh edition were being prepared as the map, or part of the map, in accordance with regulation 3 and the date of the preparation of the fresh edition were the initial date, omitting any particulars which have become incorrect, and shall indicate on the map or (as the case may be) the sheet thereof the date on which the fresh edition is prepared.\n(2) Where the preparation of a fresh edition of the map or any sheet thereof results in the substitution of an ordnance sheet of a new edition (whether an edition of the county series or an edition on which the national grid is superimposed) for an ordnance sheet of a previous edition, the drainage board shall amend any particulars entered in the register pursuant to regulation 5(4) so as to show the particulars which would have been required if the sheet of the new edition had been used in the preparation of the map pursuant to regulation 6.\n(3) Where the amendment required to be made to the map is trivial, and the expense of preparing for that purpose a fresh edition of the map, or of any sheet thereof, would not be justified, the board may prepare a transparent overlay for the map or, if the map comprises more than one sheet, for any sheet thereof, which shall indicate clearly the alteration intended to be made to the map or that sheet.\n(4) Every such overlay shall be fastened to the map to which it is an overlay so that the details thereon coincide with those on the map or sheet, but so that it may be lifted away to enable either the map or sheet alone, or the map and sheet and any other overlay fastened thereto, to be inspected.",
