The Public Land Survey System is used by the Federal Government to divide land for the citizens and most of which has been sold to private owners. The PLSS does not include the original 13 colonies nor does it include Texas. Using the PLSS, land is normally divided into 6 mile by 6 mile squares anda within those plots, subdivided into one square mile plots.
