A major management
objective above significant caves is to prevent the migration
of sediment into the caves through epikarst openings.
A reserve should be
established above a significant cave situated less than two
times the greatest dimension (height or width) of the cave
passage
or less than 10 metres below the surface.
The size and shape
of reserves above significant caves can be projected to the surface
using cave maps.
