Start with gate cards and the water crew’s route diagram. It is the source used to decide whether a gate can be identified before a crew enters a wet branch; it is not the decision itself. The rule only works if the source describes conditions at the low branch gates beneath Moss Row.
Known: the current file counts 17 gates with a marker visible from the dry side, compared with 11 in the prior window. The clerk attaches the current passage map and the last change card. The entries have dates and a named clerk.
Disputed: The water crew can see the marker while operating the wheel. Residents need to identify the gate from the dry passage. One side emphasizes the posted total; the other points to one gate marker is placed behind the turn wheel.
Why it matters: the decision determines which residents can rely on the service and which staff must carry out the change. The file does not settle that by itself.
Next: The Year first, store season window 3 file remains open for its scheduled decision. The inspector will test marker visibility from the dry approach and wheel station.
