While triangulation station TANK and TANK RM1 appear to be either destroyed or buried, TANK RM 2 remains in good condition (despite a few small pieces being taken off of its concrete setting). Public parking can be found in the lot about 180 feet to the east of the reference mark. The reference mark is set in the top of a square concrete monument that rises about 8 inches above the ground.
