Section 35-2-5 Definition of system by United States coast and geodetic survey adopted. (a) For purposes of more precisely defining the Alabama coordinate system, the following definition by the United States coast and geodetic survey is adopted: The Alabama coordinate system, east zone, is a transverse Mercator projection of the Clarke spheroid of 1866, having a central meridian 85 degrees 50' west from Greenwich, on which meridian the scale is set one part in 25,000 too small. The origin of coordinates is at the intersection of the meridian 85 degrees 50' west longitude and the parallel 30 degrees 30' north latitude. This origin is given the coordinates: x = 500,000 feet and y = 0 feet. The Alabama coordinate system, west zone, is a transverse Mercator projection of the Clarke spheroid of 1866, having a central meridian 87 degrees 30' west from Greenwich, on which meridian the scale is set one part in 15,000 too small. The origin of coordinates is at the intersection of the meridian...

Section 35-2-1 System designated; state divided into east and west zones. The system of plane coordinates which has been established by the United States coast and geodetic survey for defining and stating the positions or locations of points on the surface of the earth within the State of Alabama is hereafter to be known and designated as the "Alabama coordinate system." For the purpose of the use of this system the state is divided into an "east zone" and a "west zone." The area now included in the following counties shall constitute the east zone: Barbour, Bullock, Calhoun, Chambers, Cherokee, Clay, Cleburne, Coffee, Coosa, Covington, Crenshaw, Dale, DeKalb, Elmore, Etowah, Geneva, Henry, Houston, Jackson, Lee, Macon, Madison, Marshall, Montgomery, Pike, Randolph, Russell, Saint Clair, Talladega, and Tallapoosa. The area now included in the following counties shall constitute the west zone: Autauga, Baldwin, Bibb, Blount, Butler, Chilton, Choctaw, Clarke, Colbert, Conecuh, Cullman,...

Section 35-2-3 Plane coordinates used in system. The plane coordinates of a point on the earth's surface, to be used in expressing the position or location of such point in the appropriate zone of this system, shall consist of two distances, expressed in feet and decimals of a foot. One of these distances, to be known as the "x-coordinate," shall give the position in an east-and-west direction; the other, to be known as the "y-coordinate," shall give the position in a north-and-south direction. These coordinates shall be made to depend upon and conform to the coordinates, on the Alabama coordinate system, of the triangulation and traverse stations of the United States coast and geodetic survey within the state of Alabama, as those coordinates have been determined by said survey. (Acts 1945, No. 477, p. 708, §3.)...

Section 15-22-1.1 Interstate Compact for Adult Offender Supervision. Whereas: The Interstate Compact for the Supervision of Parolees and Probationers was established in 1937, it is the earliest corrections "compact" established among the states and has not been amended since its adoption over 62 years ago; Whereas: This compact is the only vehicle for the controlled movement of adult parolees and probationers across state lines, and it currently has jurisdiction over more than a quarter of a million offenders; Whereas: The complexities of the compact have become more difficult to administer, and many jurisdictions have expanded supervision expectations to include currently unregulated practices such as victim input, victim notification requirements, and sex offender registration; Whereas: After hearings, national surveys, and a detailed study by a task force appointed by the National Institute of Corrections, the overwhelming recommendation has been to amend the document to bring about...
