What report must be accomplished after verifying the status of old reference points?

When managing a survey control network, you must formally document what you find about old reference points and any steps taken to restore them. Verifying their status means checking whether those monuments still exist, are intact, and are usable as references. The Monument Recovery Report is the formal record that captures the condition and location of these monuments, notes any recovery or reestablishment work performed, and documents coordinates or new points if needed. This keeps the control network accurate and traceable for future surveys. Other reports serve different purposes—survey reports focus on field measurements themselves, financial reports on budgeting, and project completion reports on closing out a project—so they don’t specifically address the verification and recovery of old reference points.
