there is no road allowance, of a section, settlement lot or other surveyed parcel of land, such surveyor shall first re-establish the true position of the two nearest monuments on said boundary (see secs. 11 and 13), and in accordance with all other provisions laid down in this Act for the re-establishment of original boundaries being on opposite sides of the said centre line, and shall connect the same by a straight line, and the intersection of the straight line so established and the said centre line shall be the point of intersection shown in his field notes and plan of the survey;

(c) The unposted limit of any right of way or station. grounds shall in all cases be determined on the ground from the posted reference line and in accordance with the measurements shown on the registered plan of such right of way;

(d) The limits of the right of way as determined from

the posted reference line as herein defined and as further defined in subclause (iii) of clause (b) of this section. shall when a plan of the survey has been accepted and registered in the proper land titles office fix the true and unalterable limits of said right of way whether or not upon admeasurement on the ground the iron posts marking the reference line or posted limit are found to be in the same relative position to one another or the boundaries of the quarter section, settlement lot or other surveyed parcel of land as the same are shown on a plan.

RAILWAYS-RE-ESTABLISHMENT OF LOST POSTS.

20. Whenever a surveyor is employed to re-establish the reference line or posted limit of a right of way and one of the iron posts marking the reference line or posted limit of said right of way is lost and its original position cannot be satisfactorily established, he shall proceed as follows:

1. If such post originally marked the intersection of the reference line or posted limit of the said right of way with the boundary of a road allowance, section, quarter section, settlement lot or other surveyed parcel of land he shall re-establish the said reference line or posted limit between the two nearest undisputed points on the said reference line or posted limit which are on opposite sides of the lost post, in accordance with the measurements shown on the registered plan of said right of way and shall plant an iron post in re-establishment of the lost post at the intersection of the said reference line or posted limit so re-established and the said boundary;

2. In all other cases such surveyor shall re-establish the reference line or posted limit of the said right of way between

the two nearest undisputed points on the same, on opposite sides of the lost post, in accordance with the measurements shown on the registered plan of said right of way, and shall plant an iron post in re-establishment of such lost iron post on said reference line or posted limit so re-established in such manner that it is in the same relative position in regard to the two undisputed points, as it is shown to have occupied on the said plan as nearly as it is possible to do so. (See also clause (e) section 17).

SURVEYS OF IRRIGATION WORKS AND DITCHES.

21. When a surveyor is employed to make a survey of land required for right of way for irrigation ditches or works, he shall mark and post with iron posts as herein defined such surveys along the southerly and westerly limits thereof at the intersection of the southerly or westerly limit of each road allowance wherever possible (see subclause (i) clause (b) of section 19) or where there is no road allowance, of each section, settlement lot (see subclause (ii) clause (b) of section 19) or other surveyed parcel of land, and at each change of direction, and all measurements shall be made in reference to the posted limit of such proposed ditch or works and in every other respect he shall proceed in accordance with the provisions of this Act in regard to survey of land in so far as the same may be applicable.

(2) The posts planted in accordance with the provisions of this section shall be marked "R.W.D." and shall be driven into the ground to within two inches of the top, the markings on the posts facing inwards; the distance between posts shall in no case exceed twenty chains or 1,000 feet.

SURVEYS OF ROADS.

22. When a su veyor is employed to make a survey of lands for right of way for any roads required by a municipality he shall mark the same on the ground by planting iron posts as herein defined on one limit of the proposed road at its intersection with the southerly or westerly limit of each road allowance wherever possible (see also subclause (i) of clause (b) of section 19), where there is no road allowance of each section and at each change of direction of the said proposed road, and all measurements shall be made in reference to the posted limit of such proposed road:

(a) In the case of a settlement lot or lots or other surveyed parcel or parcels of land the surveyor shall make and post a sufficient number of ties with the boundaries of same in order that the area and location of the road may be accurately determined with relation thereto.

(2) The posts as herein defined planted in accordance with the provisions of this section shall be numbered consecutively

from the point of beginning to the end of the survey and each post shall have its number together with the letter "R" permanently marked thereon and the marking shall face inward. Posts shall be driven in the ground to within two inches of the top.

(3) Each point marked by an iron post as herein defined shall be further marked by digging four pits, two feet square and one foot in depth, the pits to be dug at right angles to the iron posts with the inner edges two feet distant from same, and so placed that the line looking forward from each point in the direction of the survey would pass through the centre of one of the pits and if prolonged would also pass through the centre of the opposite pit, the other two pits being at right angles to this line. The distance between posts shall in no case exceed 20 chains or 1,000 feet.

TRAVERSE SURVEYS.

23. In all cases where traverse surveys are required to determine the boundaries of a parcel of land fronting on a lake, river, stream, reservoir or the boundaries of any flooded area or as the case may be, the surveyor shall plant iron posts as herein defined at the beginning and end of the traverse, such points being fixed on lines which have been determined astronomically or upon previously surveyed lines the information of which is on record, at the intersection of the traverse lines with the southerly and westerly boundaries of each road allowance, wherever possible (see subclause (i) clause (b) section 19), or where there is no road allowance, of each section, settlement lot, (see subclause (ii) clause (b) section 19) or other surveyed parcel of land, and all measurements shall be made with reference to the posts so established; the posts shall be marked T.S. & B.M. and shall be used as bench marks when so required and shall be driven in the ground to within two inches of the top.

(2) Surveyors making traverse surveys shall be governed by "The Manual of Instructions for the Survey of Dominion Lands" as issued by the minister of the interior, Ottawa, 1910, covering sections 132-146 both inclusive and in so far as these sections do not conflict with anything contained in this section or with any other act in force in the Province of Saskatchewan at the time of the passing of this Act.

(3) In determining boundaries under this section offsets shall be made every two chains or 100 feet and at less intervals if the nature of the case demands; the traverse shall be chained and angular measurements taken as prescribed in section 144 of the "Manual of Instructions" above mentioned.

(4) In determining area the stadia or micrometer methods may be employed as defined in section 145 of the "Manual of

Instructions" above mentioned, excepting that all pronounced irregularities in the boundary must be observed and distances between points shall not exceed two chains. Distances measured by these methods shall not exceed 500 feet.

(5) More accurate methods may be insisted upon if deemed necessary for determining boundaries and areas when plans of such surveys are to be recorded.

(6) All plans of surveys under this section shall clearly show all the angular and linear measurement defining same, the position and lengths of all offsets, also whether the bank, centre of stream, high water line or as the case may be, forms the boundary and such other information as may be of service in order that a clear and accurate interpretation of the survey can be arrived at.
