Label the . , <br /> midpoints "A, B, C, and D" on the ti= Lq= .— <br /> site plan. <br /> Step 2) Select Bench Mark= 100'. `� , c- -7 <br /> ........... <br /> Select a fixed bench mark or datum •`•-" ----•-�-•-•---- <br /> ............. <br /> point such as the top of a utility — ---"-".._._ <br /> cover, monument in road, or other ---_,____ _ _ <br /> permanent point that cannot be i;ENcHtAAR <br /> easily moved.
