40 Clearing boundary lines (1) The relevant person must: (a) clear the boundary line between 2 corner boundary markers to a width not exceeding 1 m; and (b) provide a clear line of sight between 2 corner boundary markers or mark the boundary line as specified in this regulation. (2) If the view between 2 corner boundary markers is obscured by a tree, the relevant person may: (a) in relation to an immature tree – cut it down and remove it; or (b) in relation to a mature tree – attach a flag to it. (3) If it is not possible to provide a clear line of sight between 2 corner boundary markers, the relevant person must erect additional boundary markers so there is a clear line of sight between: (a) 2 boundary markers; or (b) 2 flagged trees; or (c) a boundary marker and a flagged tree. (4) When clearing the boundary line, the relevant person: (a) must do as little damage to the environment as is practicable; and (b) may cut down and remove a tree only as provided by subregulation (2)(a).
