§ 43-22-12.1. Description of location on system of plane coordinates.
For purposes of describing the location of any survey station or land boundary corner in the state, it is a complete, legal, and satisfactory description of the location to give the position of the survey station or land boundary corner on the system of plane coordinates defined in this chapter. Whenever coordinates based on the South Dakota state plane coordinate system are used to describe any tract of land that in the same document is also described by reference to any subdivision, line, or corner of the United States Public Lands Survey, the description by coordinates must be construed as supplemental to the basic description of the subdivision, line, or corner contained in the official plats and field notes filed of record, and in the event of any conflict, the description by reference to the subdivision, line, or corner of the United States Public Lands Survey prevails over the description by coordinates.
