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

(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;
