The Minimum Standards of Land Surveying applied to all survey plats performed in Mississippi from 1991 to June 30, 2005 (Rule 21). On July 1, 2005, new standards became effective, the Standards of Practice (revised Rule 21). A third revision of Rule 21 became effective on August 1, 2015 and required a new checklist. A fourth revision of Rule 21 became effective on April 15, 2017, however the changes were minor and did not require any update to the checklist.
