Pulled another monument
After a weekend of research and digging I had the PC pull another monument. It was an early on GPS monument and I thought there may be an outside chance it was a bad fix situation. It’s 5′ out of position for a W1/16th corner along a Section line. When he went out there to jerk it he found another monument at the correct position which was a plastic cap.
The kicker was the offending monument was one of our own. I finally figured out how it happened after most of two days of going back over all the jobs connected to it. It was incorrectly tied to a survey of the section that had a 10 minute error in the bearing, and 2 feet in the distance. The bad thing was the error was corrected for a COS but the monument wasn’t so it sat there for a long time unused till last week.
