Comments

  • We add meaning mappings to permissible values only when the corresponding ENVO class is in a released ENVO version. The sewer system, septic tank and cesspit classes that PHA4GE pins (ENVO:03501451 to ENVO:03501454) and the wastewater waste tank class (GENEPIO:0102057) are not released, so those values stay unmapped until they are.
