Hole and Notches in close proximity

RustyH

Are there any regs relating to drilling a new hole below an existing notch. 

Regs only seem to define the span criteria, and I can not see any guidance in Part P. 

It would seem logical to me to offset any hole a set distance from a notch, but drilling a hole below a notch equally seems compliant?

    The accepted areas for notching and those for holes don't quite overlap, notches 0.07 to 0.25 of span, and holes 0.25 to 0.4 of span. So you can't go directly below a notch.

    Distance between holes is 3x largest diameter of hole. Can't find distance between notches. So I assume minimum distance between a notch and a hole would be 3x the hole diameter measured horizontally. But I am guessing that as there is no definite guidance I can find.
