(1) contain a printed certification of the professional surveyor stating that "this is a boundary survey plat of an existing tract", or existing tracts, if appropriate, and that "it is not a land division or subdivision as defined in the New Mexico Subdivision Act [Chapter 47, Article 6, NMSA 1978]";
