All advice must be backed up by facts from the case and your exhibits. The information necessary to draw the process flow diagram is on pages 5-7 and exhibit 3. Please note that you will need to adjust some of the information in order to keep everything in the same units. In some cases, the information is in units per in others it is in bundles per.
