Known conflict
NEITHER REGULATION STATES THE CODES' APPROVAL YEAR, so the 2025 Gazette sweep covers a volume that is probably not the relevant one. That is the reason this row is QUALIFIED and not SUPPORTED: the mandate is established at the instrument and the non-publication is established only at two venues, one of which is very likely the wrong year. A second conflict is recorded rather than resolved: SRC-376 carries a live D-051 bar arising from the codes not being held, and the two chapters print bounded absences that do not breach it on their face. The bar is not lifted by this row. [ANSWERED 6 SEPTEMBER 2026 ON P3-B1 OF audits/reports/GATE6_part_one_and_three_2026-09-06.md: the question whether the 2025 sweep covered the relevant volume IS SETTLED FOR THE DISTRIBUTION CODE, which is in the 2016 volume at issue 32 part one. It is not settled for the transmission code, which is absent from every year held.]

Downstream
Chapter 8 line 321, which since v12 carries BOTH limbs in one clause: the mandate, [quotation withheld, 10 words; follow the citation], and a cross-reference, [quotation withheld, 16 words; follow the citation]. || SUPERSEDED IN PART, 2 SEPTEMBER 2026, AT CHAPTER 8 v17, AND THE TRIPWIRE IN Version IS REARMED ON THE NEW WORDS. Both strings quoted above occur ZERO times in draft/chapters/08-energy-transition_v17.md. Line 321 now reads: “It requires a published grid code, which Syrian regulation calls the network codes and defines as two, one for transmission and one for distribution, each binding on the subscribers who connect to its network; the next chapter sets out where this book looked for both and did not find them [SUPERSEDED 6 SEPTEMBER 2026: Chapter 8 line 321 now reads “and which of the two it found”].” THAT IS A CORRECTION AND NOT A CUT: the mandate limb is narrowed to what the instruments say, per the correction recorded in Measure_and_scope, and the cross-reference limb survives entire. The words to compare against on any future sweep are the new ones, not the old. Chapter 9 line 147 is unchanged and the dependency stated in Action stands unaltered. Written on Finding 1 of audits/reports/08-energy-transition_v17_diff_review_2026-09-02.md, which found that the v17 pass asserted in its sibling adjudication that this column had been updated when it had not. Chapter 9 line 147, which carries the network-code passage in full with its method, its two controls and its untried routes, opening “The technical rules.” AMENDED 17 SEPTEMBER 2026 (the same finding): Chapter 9 v27 line 147 carries the method by pointer ('searched on the same method and controls as the transit fee'; the indexes 'swept') to the transit paragraph at line 143 and to SRC-392 and SRC-473, and its sentence for the tripwire is 'The transmission code appears in none of the indexes, in any of the orthographic forms this corpus needs.' Chapter 8 line 321 is unchanged.

Version
0.1 || AMENDED 1 SEPTEMBER 2026. THE COLUMN WRITTEN IS Destination, and it read 'Chapters 8 and 9'. CHAPTER 9 CARRIES NOTHING ABOUT THE CODES: 'grid code' returns zero hits in 09-endowments-and-exports_v8.md, which is Oil, Gas, Phosphate and Olives. SRC-376 records why: the prose resting on the codes was withdrawn at v9 under D-106. This row's destination outlived that withdrawal, as did Chapter 8's sentence promising the next chapter would set the search out, WHICH IS DELETED IN THE SAME PASS AS THIS AMENDMENT. The claim itself is unchanged and stays QUALIFIED; only where it lands is corrected. || THE AMENDMENT MADE EARLIER THIS DAY IS WITHDRAWN IN FULL AND IT WAS FALSE. The column was Destination and it was changed from 'Chapters 8 and 9' to 'Chapter 8' on the assertion that CHAPTER 9 CARRIES NOTHING ABOUT THE CODES because 'grid code' returns zero hits. THAT ASSERTION IS FALSE AND THE ZERO HITS DO NOT SUPPORT IT: Chapter 9 line 147 carries the network-code passage in full, opening 'The technical rules.', with the retrieval attempts of 23 and 24 August 2026, the four ministry documents, the 2025 Official Gazette sweep of the 100 documents held with its two controls, and the untried routes named under D-051. IT USES 'network codes' AND NOT 'grid code', which is why a single-surface-form search missed it. THIS ROW'S OWN Downstream COLUMN QUOTED THAT PARAGRAPH AND NAMED IT, and this row's own tripwire in Version was written to fire on exactly this and supplied the strings to compare against; the pass read Destination alone and amended it. Destination is restored to 'Chapters 8 and 9'. Found by the Chapter 8 v16 diff review, BLOCKER B2.
