Zoning and subdivision exclusion upon request.
An abstracter shall furnish an abstract of title to the surface of any tract of land, when
requested to do so, omitting therefrom all instruments of transfer or conveyance of mineral
rights, royalties, and other mineral interests except instruments which sever mineral rights or
royalties from surface rights. In addition to such surface abstract, an abstracter shall, when
requested to do so, furnish a list showing the names of the grantor and grantee and the
recording data of all instruments in the chains of title which transfer or convey mineral rights,
royalties, or other mineral interests and which are not included in the surface abstract. For each
instrument searched and listed, but not included in the surface abstract, an abstracter may
charge a fee not to exceed three dollars. When requested to do so, an abstracter shall furnish a
mineral abstract of any chain of title to the minerals of any tract of land which shall consist of the
instrument severing the mineral rights or royalties from the surface rights and include all
instruments of transfer or conveyance of mineral rights, royalties, and other mineral interests. If
requested, such mineral abstract may be combined with a surface abstract of all instruments
affecting title to the tract of land to and including the instrument severing the mineral rights,
royalties, or other mineral interests being abstracted. Further, when requested to do so, an
abstracter shall omit zoning and subdivision ordinances but shall note and exclude them from
the abstract of title. An abstracter may charge a per entry fee under section 43-01-18 for each
omitted zoning and subdivision ordinance.
