Society of Surveyors

NCSS is partnering with the Northwest Chapter to present this seminar. 

Registration begins at 7:30 am and class concludes at 4:30 pm.  Breakfast and Lunch will be provided.

The Northwest Chapter is hosting a seminar with multiple topics that are sure to interest attendees. 

•  "Here is My Situation ..." by John Logsdon

This module will focus primarily on the legal aspects of surveying. Legal principles do not exist in a vacuum; each situation is dependent upon the specific facts. The surveyor’s initial job is to discover the facts required to complete the particular survey, including researching deeds, searching for physical evidence, and perhaps gathering parole evidence. The surveyor is then required to apply sound legal principles to the facts discovered. This module will allow open discussion of fact-specific situations involving ethics, standards of practice, boundary law, easements, Board rules, contractual issues, and other legal topics. We need your input! Please send us your fact-specific real-world situation no later than September 13th. The issue can involve boundary law, easements, Board rules, contract issues or any other legal topics.  Please include as much detail as is necessary to understand the issue and come to a possible resolution.  Click Here to Email Situations
