allotted to the survey unless the total linear
and angular misclosure as determined from
the appropriate formula in Schedule 9 is
within the limit or error of the specific
classification; and
(b) if the classification as determined by the
formula differs from the specific
classification, the classification allotted to
the survey must be the lower of the two.
