Was found during an Improvement survey plat operation.
Upon finding the monument(s) and ties, which would you be keeping for your final drawing?
The spikes are ties to the older pipe, the office guy?ÿ ?ÿ (not an

LS) said he only wanted the shiny cap with recent date.
Hmmm.
Pipe matched the SW corner pipe Found and yeah, there's that. No matching shiny cap though.
There is a Surveying company in FL with a similar name that is a "National" surveying co. Supposedly has "professional relationships" with surveyors nationwide which enables them to survey anywhere in the US. ?????ÿ
What does the monument record show? Is the cap an accessory to the pipe? Was the pipe replaced by the cap and reset as an accessory to the cap? Obviously all the evidence has to be collected and if the current monument record does not explain the relationship of the 2 monuments, your company will have to file a monument record for the corner showing all of the ties and monuments.
My gut reaction is the same as yours - why reject the older pipes? Well, there could be reasons.?ÿ After all "American Surveys" went to a lot of effort to set those new caps when perfectly serviceable pipe already existed - they must have had a reason.?ÿ And decisions may have been made higher up the food chain, for better or worse. I want to know more. My approach would be to tie both, in any case.
Done and done.
Shiny Cap was called in the plat
Pipe just happens to be there first ????

I would do the same, but in my minds eye I'd rip the "shiny cap/rod" out and send it to the surveyor who set it. ?????ÿ
Some projects are done as a team. One team member does the outer boundary resolution and the rest of the team has to hold their nose and go with it. It doesn't do for each successive surveyor on the team to engage in a pissing match over the work of the last.?ÿ Take solace in the fact that hardly anyone loses their license or gets sued over 0.3' of yet to be developed land.?ÿ Especially for the crime of accepting a recently set capped monument.?ÿ?ÿ
Oh my aching back??

Is this a replat?
The monstrosity next to the IP looks like a section corner. What do you call that thing? Is it the section corner or a marker for it?
Not sure.
Improvement survey plat?ÿ ISP
They're building a house and need boundary topo and then no build limits staked.
They took it on themselves to stake out the house.

Hey, was it intentional to have a pin cushion double post about a pin cushion monument??ÿ ?ÿ ?ÿ: )
No, but it's pretty funny and serendipitous for sure.
I'm not that brilliant.
About as bright as a 10watt bulb... ?????ÿ
I'm curious if that state has a private surveyor monument rehabilitation program?
It's a dog's life.?ÿ Pissing on someone else's stake so your scent is the strongest.
There is a simple explanation for many pincushions, which is that the crew did not want to carry whatever they set back to the truck.

@jitterboogie went to do an alta and at a intersection by a entrance brick wall there were several called for corners set. ?ÿWe were looking best we could not to tear up landscaping etc. ?ÿtrying to be good. ?ÿWell nature called and i wedged myself between the wall and a oak. I just happened to look down. ?ÿThere they were several rebars 18? long laying in a stack next to the tree. An old partial role of flagging and small sledge. My boss said one day he will tell me the story over a beer what had happened as he has reached out to tge other surveyor. ?ÿSomeone didn??t want to carry them back nor set them lol.?ÿ
