To be clear, when bogs are separated, certain tests have to be done on them. There is stuff that has to be one. A pipe is put in the ground to allow water to upwell and determine the depth of lock and so on. It is provable. Do the witnesses understand? What I am trying to find is a solution to get things moving. We need to give an exemption so that people do not have to go through all of this rigmarole.
