Editor's note

As filed in O. Reg. 350/06, the headings for Column 5 and Column 7 of Table 9.6.6.1. appear as '5 Column' and '7 Column' (number before the word), the 'Notes to Table 9.6.6.1.:' headnote is bold, and the footnote reference '(1)' is shown inline. The consolidated e-Laws text normalizes the headings to 'Column 5' and 'Column 7', sets the headnote in regular weight, and presents the footnote reference as a superscript. No amending regulation makes any of these changes; the as-filed wording and presentation are retained here.
