No coordinates based on either Georgia Coordinate System purporting to define the position of a point on a land boundary shall be presented to be recorded in any public land records or deed records unless such point has been connected by survey to a monumented horizontal control station that is identified and has been established in conformity with the standards of accuracy and specifications as prepared and published by the Federal Geodetic Control Committee of the United States Department of Commerce. Standards and specifications of the Federal Geodetic Control Committee or its successors in force on the date of said survey shall apply. The publishing of the existing control stations, or the acceptance with intent to publish the newly established control stations, by the National Ocean Survey/National Geodetic Survey will constitute evidence of adherence to the Federal Geodetic Control Committee specifications.
