Yes, I'm back to work for the city in Engineering again.
I had some comments on my FB page about a picture. This is a better detail for what we set on top of pins that are not property corners but do mark corners of our right of way. Generally used on road projects where we widen the road but do not take in fee.
This avoids confusion, at least to most, on what the pin is actually set for.
If we take in fee then we use the standard caps that identify it as a property corner.
We usually like to get an easement on roadways instead of in fee to reduce the chance of someone in planning calling it an undersize lot when someone wants to make any improvements.
'Bout time you got back to work and quit slackin...
Pretty neat pin cap.
Doesn't look like a committee designed it.
Just one person. Me at the time. Simple and to the point, pun intended. And the color helps also. It's not the standard yellow caps that everyone uses in Okie for property caps nor of the same design.

It looks like different material too, is it?
Good to see you back in the work force again, the survey community needs more Deral/Daryl's....;-)
Radar
I dunno about the material Radar but it's held up pretty well. I ran across one yesterday that is about 10 years old and surface level (facing the elements) that is still intact and just as blue.
We staked out a mile and a half of right of way yesterday. It was such a joy to have Michael go get the orders from the big boss while I went and filled up the van, flagged stakes, pins and otherwise readied everything for the day.
TDD would have been proud of me.
And just guess where the stupid PI fell on this project. I had to do my Hancock super hero on this thing to set that pin.

Surely you did not drive a pin right in the middle of the governors mansion did you? 😉
The milk truck was pristen before this picture. I hammered my way into that thing to get to the pin location. Don't mess with a man on a mission.
Say, I could use a taillight off that old dodge..... !
🙂
Enjoy the labor of surveying!
