43-22-9. Recordation of land description based on coordinate systems--Limitation.

No coordinates based on either South Dakota 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 is within one kilometer of a monumented horizontal control station established in conformity with the standards of accuracy and specification for first or second-order geodetic surveying 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 in force on date of the survey apply. Publishing existing control stations, or the acceptance with intent to publish the newly established stations, by the United States Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, shall constitute evidence of adherence to the federal geodetic control committee specifications. Above limitations may be modified by a duly authorized state agency to meet local conditions.
