Nevada Revised Statutes Title 26. Public Lands § 329.020. Declaration of policy

It is the purpose of this chapter to protect and perpetuate public land survey corners and other corners, along with information concerning the location of such corners by requiring the systematic establishment of monuments and recording of information concerning the location of such corners, thereby providing for property security and a coherent system of property location and identification, and eliminating the repeated necessity for re-establishment and relocations of such corners once they are established and located.
