(5) Establish requirements and standards for continuing education. In establishing requirements, the board shall consult with those groups and organizations which represent both the levels of practice specified in this chapter and the various settings in which social work is practiced.

Section 35-2-1System designated; state divided into east and west zones. The system of plane coordinates which has been established by the United States coast and geodetic survey for defining and stating the positions or locations of points on the surface of the earth within the State of Alabama is hereafter to be known and designated as the "Alabama coordinate system." For the purpose of the use of this system the state is divided into an "east zone" and a "west zone." The area now included in the following counties shall constitute the east zone: Barbour, Bullock, Calhoun, Chambers, Cherokee, Clay, Cleburne, Coffee, Coosa, Covington, Crenshaw, Dale, DeKalb, Elmore, Etowah, Geneva, Henry, Houston, Jackson, Lee, Macon, Madison, Marshall, Montgomery, Pike, Randolph, Russell, Saint Clair, Talladega, and Tallapoosa.

Section 35-2-3Plane coordinates used in system. The plane coordinates of a point on the earth's surface, to be used in expressing the position or location of such point in the appropriate zone of this system, shall consist of two distances, expressed in feet and decimals of a foot. One of these distances, to be known as the "x-coordinate," shall give the position in an east-and-west direction; the other, to be known as the "y-coordinate," shall give the position in a north-and-south direction. These coordinates shall be made to depend upon and conform to the coordinates, on the Alabama coordinate system, of the triangulation and traverse stations of the United States coast and geodetic survey within the state of Alabama, as those coordinates have been determined by said survey.

Section 35-2-5Definition of system by United States coast and geodetic survey adopted. (a) For purposes of more precisely defining the Alabama coordinate system, the following definition by the United States coast and geodetic survey is adopted: The Alabama coordinate system, east zone, is a transverse Mercator projection of the Clarke spheroid of 1866, having a central meridian 85 degrees 50' west from Greenwich, on which meridian the scale is set one part in 25,000 too small. The origin of coordinates is at the intersection of the meridian 85 degrees 50' west longitude and the parallel 30 degrees 30' north latitude. This origin is given the coordinates: x = 500,000 feet and y = 0 feet. The Alabama coordinate system, west zone, is a transverse Mercator projection of the Clarke spheroid of 1866, having a central meridian 87 degrees 30' west from Greenwich, on which meridian the scale is set one part in 15,000 too small. The origin of coordinates is at the intersection of the meridian 87 degrees 30' west longitude and the parallel 30 degrees 00' north latitude. This origin is given the coordinates: x = 500,000 feet and y = 0 feet. (b) The position of the Alabama coordinate system shall be as marked on the ground by triangulation or traverse stations established in conformity with standards adopted by the United States coast and geodetic survey for first-order and second-order work, whose geodetic positions have been rigidly adjusted on the North American Datum of 1927, and whose coordinates have been computed on the system herein defined. Any such station may be used for establishing a survey connection with the Alabama coordinate system. (Acts 1945, No. 477, p. 708 §5.)

Section 35-2-6Limitation on recordation of coordinates defining position of point on land boundary; descriptions of monuments, markers, etc. No coordinates based on the Alabama coordinate system, purporting to define the position of a point on a land boundary, shall be presented to be recorded in any public land records or deed records unless such point is within one-half mile of a triangulation or traverse station established in conformity with the standards prescribed in Section 35-2-5; provided, that said one-half mile limitation may be modified by the Secretary of State to meet local conditions. The Secretary of State shall, from time to time, procure descriptions of monuments, bench marks and markers, etc., as same may become available, relative to the Alabama coordinate system, and shall keep a complete record of this information in the office of the Secretary of State. The Secretary of State shall make and furnish certified copies thereof to each of the probate judges of the several counties in Alabama. It shall be the duty of the probate judge of each county to file and keep a permanent record with proper indexes of such information which shall be available to the public.

Whenever coordinates based on the Alabama coordinate system are used to describe any tract of land which in the same document is also described by reference to any subdivision, line, or corner of the United States public land surveys, the description by coordinates shall be construed as supplemental to the basic description of such subdivision, line, or corner contained in the official plats and field notes filed of record; and, in the event of any conflict, the description by reference to the subdivision, line, or corner of the United States public land surveys shall prevail over the description by coordinates.
