The plant examination shall be divided into the following areas:
(1) The preparation of not less
than 5 complete chains of title consisting of the book and page of the recorded
instrument, type of instrument, parties to the instruments, and dates. The
chains are to include any instruments filed of record which do not describe the

(2) The running of not less than 20 chains of
title limited to a notation as to the book and page of recorded instruments
which describe the property;
(3) A
list of 20 recorded instruments not affecting specific property shall be
compiled by the board from the office of the register of deeds. The board shall
check the list in the plant to see that they are properly indexed;
(4) The board shall examine not less than 20
instruments. If they are abbreviated takeoffs from recorded instruments, they
will be checked against the original recorded instruments to see that they
contain all essential parts of the instruments. If they are films or copies of
the original recorded instruments, they will be checked to see that all
essential parts of the instruments are clearly legible; and
(5) The board shall compile a list of 20
unsatisfied mechanics' or materialmen's liens which have been filed or renewed
in the past 6 years in the office of the register of deeds and unsatisfied
judgments which have been filed or renewed on the South Dakota Unified Judicial
System; the board shall check the list in the plant to see that they are
properly indexed. If there are fewer than 10 unsatisfied mechanics' or
materialmen's liens in the office of the register of deeds, all of them shall
be checked in the plant.
