41 Surveyor to note nature and position of survey marks etc

(1) A surveyor must indicate in the field notes and on the survey plan:

(a) the nature and position of any survey mark, object or monument found by the surveyor, and

(b) the nature of any survey mark (other than a peg) placed by the surveyor, and

(c) the essential measurements from any reference mark, permanent survey mark, object or monument to the nearest corner, angle or line mark.

(2) If reference marks are placed or found at depths of more than 150mm below the existing surface of the ground, the surveyor must indicate the depths on the survey plan.

(2A) Except as allowed under clause 35 (2), a reference mark may be connected to only one point on a survey plan, and may not be connected to that point if it is more than 30 metres from that point.

(3) If reference marks are found, the surveyor must note their origin on the survey plan by reference to the number of the plan on which the marks first occur.

(4) A monument that is important for the definition of the land must be shown on the survey plan and in the surveyor's field notes with the annotation "found", "not found", "gone", "disturbed" or "inaccessible" as appropriate.

(5) A monument must not be recorded as "gone" unless a thorough search for the monument has been made and the measurements of its probable site recorded in the field notes.
