COORDINATE SYSTEM FOR DEFINING LOCATION OF POINTS WITHIN STATE

SECTION 27-2-10. System adopted; title.

The system of plane coordinates which has been established by the National Ocean Survey and the National Geodetic Survey for defining and stating the positions or location of points on the surface of the earth within this State may be cited as the "South Carolina Coordinate System Act."

For the purpose of the use of this system the State is designated as one zone.

SECTION 27-2-20. Zone title for use in land descriptions.

As established, the South Carolina Coordinate System is named, and in a land description in which it is used it is designated, the "South Carolina Coordinate System."

SECTION 27-2-30. Plane coordinates for expressing position of point defined.

The plane coordinates of a point on the earth's surface, to be used in expressing the position or location of a point in the State, consist of two distances, expressed in feet and decimals of a foot. One of these distances, to be known as the easting (x-coordinate), gives the distance in an east-and-west direction; the other, to be known as the northing (y-coordinate), gives the distance in a north-and-south direction. These coordinates must be made to depend upon and conform to the coordinates, on the South Carolina Coordinate System, of the monumented points of the North American Horizontal Geodetic Control Network as published by the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey (now the National Geodetic Survey) within this State as those coordinates have been determined by the survey.

SECTION 27-2-50. Coordinate System defined.

For purposes of more precisely defining the South Carolina Coordinate System, the following definition by the National Ocean Survey and the National Geodetic Survey is adopted:

The South Carolina Coordinate System is a Lambert conformal projection of the North American Datum, 1983, having standard parallels at north latitudes 32
