The multifarious nature of
the work performed by this branch in the preparation of sale
particulars and lease plans, of permits and licences for cul-

the laying out of new areas and the improvement of many insani-
tery areas and villages, of setting out reclamations, new roads,

of systematic survey work. The total length of traverses run
during the year between the triangulated points already valued
and accepted, exclusive of detail lines, mounts to about 60
miles.
The following is a brief summary of the other work accom-
blished:-
261 lease plans (in triplicate) with particulars were
prepared.
27 sale plans (in duplicate) and sale conditions were

prepared.
1,917 plans and sumprints in connection with proposed sules,
permits, piers, squatters' holdings to. were prepared
