This law sets conditions before land survey records can go to a state. The state must first pass a law to safely keep the records as public records. The state's law must also let federal officials access those records for free.
This section puts a condition on handing land survey records over to the states.
The field notes, maps, records, and other papers described in section 53 of this title can never be turned over to a state's authorities until that state has first passed a law providing for two things: safely keeping the records as public records, and letting United States government authorities freely access those same records.
