According to the DAO, how should disputes over survey results be resolved?

When a dispute over survey results occurs, the DAO directs that it be resolved through a legal process. This means going through the formal judicial or quasi-judicial channels so the dispute is decided with due process, trained evaluation of evidence, and a binding, reviewable decision. This approach ensures the outcome is consistent with applicable laws and regulations and protects the rights of all parties involved. Informal negotiation or simply re-surveying the land does not provide a binding resolution or the same level of procedural safeguards, and consulting with the DENR is advisory rather than a final decision.
