Departmental Letter "N" takes the Colorado Surveyor General to task that he does NOT have the authority to "amend an approved survey upon alleged errors therein, reported by another deputy surveyor…" The GLO Commissioner required a careful examination of the two surveys and report, "in full as to what would be the result of an amendment of Sur. No. 12577 so as to locate the Hood, Sur. No.540 as approved… A sketch showing the plat of Sur. No. 12577 as it now exists, and what it would be if it were made to show Sur.

This means a perpetuation of the error, if any exist, in the former patented survey, and the deputy who makes the latter survey is compelled to falsify his returns to conform to such error. The courts hold that the monuments and markings on the ground govern." Mr. Anderson included the same paragraph in his 1902 and 1903 reports to the GLO Commissioner. Mr. Anderson's statements are a stark reminder that the Binger
Hermann policy is Cadastral vandalism of the official field notes, approved plat and patent.
