large-scale mining operations. All maps submitted with large-scale permit applications must be legible and drawn to a scale which clearly shows the elements being delineated. Maps must conform to the following criteria: (1) Show the name of the applicant; (2) Be prepared and signed by a person qualified in the preparation of maps; (3) Give the date prepared; (4) Identify the requirement the map is intended to fulfill; (5) Include a legend indicating the items shown on that particular map; (6) Clearly indicate township, range, and section boundaries; and (7) Identify scale. Base maps must identify all major topographic features and landmarks, streams, towns, subdivisions, historic or archaeologic sites, utilities, roads, and buildings. In lieu of delineating these items on the map, the use of a standard U.S. geological survey seven-and-one-half-minute quadrangle map may be used as a base map.
