This step has not effectively changed any chunk references due to the first fossil access rule. If a backup procedure references a chunk after it is marked as a fossil, a new chunk will be uploaded because of the second fossil access rule, as depicted in Figure 1.

The second step, called the *fossil deletion* step, will permanently delete fossils, but only when two conditions are met:
* For each snapshot id, there is a new snapshot that was not seen by the fossil collection step
* The new snapshot must finish after the fossil collection step

The first condition guarantees that if a backup procedure references a chunk before the deletion procedure turns it into a fossil, the reference will be detected in the fossil deletion step which will then turn the fossil back into a normal chunk.
The second condition guarantees that any backup procedure unknown to the fossil deletion step can start only after the fossil collection step finishes. Therefore, if it references a chunk that was identified as fossil in the fossil collection step, it should observe the fossil, not the chunk, so it will upload a new chunk, according to the second fossil access rule.

+Therefore, if a backup procedure references a chunk before the chunk is marked a fossil, the fossil deletion step will not
+delete the chunk until it sees the backup procedure finishes (as indicated by the appearance of a new snapshot file uploaded to the storage). This ensure that senarios depicted in Figure 2 will never happen.
