the appropriate zone of this system, shall consist of two (2)
distances expressed in U.S. Survey Feet and decimals of a foot when
using the Oklahoma Coordinate System of 1927 and expressed in meters
or U.S. Survey feet and decimals of a meter or U.S. Survey foot when

direction; the other, to be known as the "y-coordinate" (also known
as "northing"), shall give the position in a north-and-south
direction. These coordinates shall be made to depend on and conform
to plane rectangular coordinate values derived from the National
Spatial Reference System (NSRS) as defined and promulgated by the
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration/National Geodetic
Survey, or its successors, and whose plane coordinates have been
computed on the systems defined in this act.
