1. For purposes of more specifically defining the Nevada Coordinate System of 1927, the following definition by the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey is adopted: (a) The Nevada Coordinate System of 1927, East Zone, is a transverse Mercator projection of the Clarke Spheroid of 1866, having a central meridian 115°35¢ west of Greenwich, on which meridian the scale is set at one part in 10,000 too small. The origin of coordinates is at the intersection of the meridian 115°35¢ west of Greenwich and the parallel 34°45¢ north latitude. This origin is given the coordinates: x = 500,000 feet and y = 0 feet. (b) The Nevada Coordinate System of 1927, Central Zone, is a transverse Mercator projection of the Clarke Spheroid of 1866, having a central meridian 116°40¢ west of Greenwich, on which meridian the scale is set at one part in 10,000 too small. The origin of coordinates is at the intersection of the meridian 116°40¢ west of Greenwich and the parallel 34°45¢ north latitude. This origin is given the coordinates: x = 500,000 feet and y = 0 feet. (c) The Nevada Coordinate System of 1927, West Zone, is a transverse Mercator projection of the Clarke Spheroid of 1866, having a central in is given the coordinates: x = 500,000 feet and y = 0 feet. (c) The Nevada Coordinate System of 1927, West Zone, is a transverse Mercator projection of the Clarke Spheroid of 1866, having a central meridian 118°35¢ west of Greenwich, on which meridian the scale is set at one part in 10,000 too small. The origin of coordinates is at the intersection of the meridian 118°35¢ west of Greenwich and the parallel 34°45¢ north latitude. This origin is given the coordinates: x = 500,000 feet and y = 0 feet. 2. For purposes of more specifically defining the Nevada Coordinate System of 1983, the following definition by the National Geodetic Survey of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is adopted: (a) The Nevada Coordinate System of 1983, East Zone, is a transverse Mercator projection of the North American Datum of 1983, having a central meridian 115°35¢ west of Greenwich, on which meridian the scale is set at one part in 10,000 too small. The origin of coordinates is at the intersection of the meridian 115°35¢ west of Greenwich and the parallel 34°45¢ north latitude. This origin is given the coordinates: x = 200,000 meters and y = 8,000,000 meters. coordinates is at the intersection of the meridian 115°35¢ west of Greenwich and the parallel 34°45¢ north latitude. This origin is given the coordinates: x = 200,000 meters and y = 8,000,000 meters. (b) The Nevada Coordinate System of 1983, Central Zone, is a transverse Mercator projection of the North American Datum of 1983, having a central meridian 116°40¢ west of Greenwich, on which meridian the scale is set at one part in 10,000 too small. The origin of coordinates is at the intersection of the meridian 116°40¢ west of Greenwich and the parallel 34°45¢ north latitude. This origin is given the coordinates: x = 500,000 meters and y = 6,000,000 meters. (c) The Nevada Coordinate System of 1983, West Zone, is a transverse Mercator projection of the North American Datum of 1983, having a central meridian 118°35¢ west of Greenwich, on which meridian the scale is set at one part in 10,000 too small. The origin of coordinates is at the intersection of the meridian 118°35¢ west of Greenwich and the parallel 34°45¢ north latitude. This origin is given the coordinates: x = 800,000 meters and y = 4,000,000 meters. [5:84:1945; 1943 NCL § 5589.04]—(NRS A 1983, 1340)
