I'm deciphering some D.L.C. notes and I keep seeing "Set a post marked W.P.S. from which I ran..."
Any Ideas what WPS stands for?
It seems they are all associated with Meander lines.
I believe the Surveyor was just calling out "witness points" but the "S" has got me stumped. In the manual it says WP is witness point and the S is the section and is to be followed by the section number, but my notes do not indicate section number.
Could it be that surveyor's initials?

Is it WPS or WP5?
Ask the BLM.
Oops, maybe later.
For whom ( what party) was the DLC survey being executed?
Could it be "Witness Post Set"? Around here it could be a post, pipe, pin or the evil POINT. Maybe its nocal custom but when I see "S" at the end I always think "Set".
I usually see WP as Witness Post here, S is common shorthand for Steel.
These are generally on Form 6 (Permenant Survey Mark Location sketches) though, not Cadastral plans.
