(e) Each plat shall be signed and sealed by a professional land surveyor or
property line surveyor licensed in the State.

(f) (1) In Worcester County, if an unrecorded plat exists showing a
subdivision, from which any lot has been granted, and the owner of the subdivision, or
any part of it, proposes to resubdivide it in a manner different from the unrecorded
plat, a copy of the unrecorded plat shall be recorded as required by this section and in
addition to any other plat required by this section. If no unrecorded plat exists, the
owner shall record an affidavit to this fact.

(2) In Worcester County, if a recorded plat exists showing a subdivision,
and the owner of the subdivision, or any part of it, proposes to resubdivide it in a
manner different from the recorded plat, another plat shall be recorded. This plat
shall indicate clearly the lines, designation of blocks and block numbers, lots and lot
numbers, streets, alleys, rights-of-way, and all other easements or pertinent data of
the original recorded plat, with the proposed resubdivision plat superimposed on it.
The proposed resubdivision plat shall indicate clearly the lines, designation of blocks
and block numbers, lots and lot numbers, streets, alleys, rights-of-way, and all other
easements and pertinent data. This plat shall be recorded in addition to any other
plats required by this section.

(3) In Worcester County, if the owner of two or more contiguous tracts of
land proposes to combine the tracts and subdivide them, the owner shall have
recorded a plat to be known as a perimeter plat as provided in this section and in
addition to any other plat required by this paragraph. The perimeter plat shall show
clearly the lines of the original tracts, include a title reference to each tract, and have
a plat showing the proposed subdivision of the entire tract superimposed on it. If less
than the entire tract is subdivided, at any one time, each subsequent subdivision plat
likewise shall be superimposed on a perimeter plat which also shall show clearly all
prior subdivisions made pursuant to this subsection.

(4) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (b), (c), and (d) and in
addition to the requirements of paragraphs (1), (2), and (3), if the subdivided lands
are, in whole or in part, within the corporate limits of an incorporated municipality,
the plat may not be accepted for record by the Clerk of the Circuit Court of Worcester
County until it first has been submitted to and approved by the governing body of the
municipality where the land is located, and the approval of the municipality has been
indicated plainly on the plat.

(g) In Cecil County, if an unrecorded plat exists showing a subdivision created
prior to June 1, 1945, from which any lot has been granted and to which reference has
been made in a deed now of record, the owner of the subdivision or any lot, or any
interested party may have recorded a copy of the unrecorded plat in a separate plat
book to be maintained by the Clerk of the Circuit Court for Cecil County. Reference to
the plat is not by itself a "description of the property sufficient to identify it with
reasonable certainty" within the meaning of § 4-101. The person presenting the plat
for recording shall pay to the Clerk a fee of $1 for each plat so offered. No other
provision of this section applies to the recording of any plat in Cecil County.
