An. Code, 1924, sec. 50. 1922, ch. 307, sec. 49.
50. Every six months the operator of every such mine shall cause to
be accurately shown on the map hereinbefore required to be made, and
upon the copies thereof herein provided for, all extensions of such mine
and mine workings, made during the intervening period, and all portions
of such mine and mine workings, discontinued and abandoned.
An. Code, 1924, sec. 51. 1922, ch. 307, sec. 50.
51. The operator shall furnish the district mine inspector for his offi-
cial use, to remain in the custody of the Bureau and not without consent
of such operator to be made public, a good blue print or other exact re-
production of the original map hereinbefore provided to be made; and
every six months thereafter an additional reproduction showing the ex-
tensions thereof.
An. Code, 1924, sec. 52. 1922, ch. 307, sec.-51.
52. Whenever a mine is worked out or abandoned, the operator shall
within sixty days thereafter extend the map of such mine to clearly show
all worked out or abandoned territory, and shall furnish the district mine
inspector with a good reproduction thereof, and a like copy to the Bureau,
to be kept as a public document. Upon all original maps and reproduc-
tions thereof shall be endorsed a certificate signed by the mining engineer
or surveyor who prepared the same, that said map and the reproduction
thereof are duplicates in every particular and accurately show the lines
therein portrayed; and upon the reproductions furnished the district mine
inspector shall be endorsed a signed statement of the mine foreman that
he has carefully examined the map and reproduction; that the reproduc-
tion is an accurate copy of the original map, and that said map accurately
represents the mine property within his personal knowledge thereof.
An. Code, 1924, sec. 53. 1922, ch. 307, sec. 52.
53. Whenever the district mine inspector shall have reason to suspect
that any mine workings approach dangerous accumulations of water or
of dangerous gases, such inspector shall have power by special safety order
to require that the operator cause the suspected portion of such mine to be
immediately surveyed and entered upon the map of such mine.
An. Code, 1924, sec. 54. 1922, ch. 307, sec. 53.
54. Whenever the district mine inspector shall have reason to believe
that any map of any mine or reproduction thereof furnished to him pur-
suant to the provisions of this sub-title is inaccurate or imperfect, he shall
have power to order a survey of such mine or any portion thereof which
he may believe to have been incorrectly mapped; and the cost of such sur-
vey shall be recoverable from the operator as other debts are recoverable
by law; provided, that if the map claimed by such inspector to be inaccu-
rate or imperfect shall be found to be sufficiently accurate for its intended
purpose, then the reasonable cost of such survey shall be a charge payable
by the State.
