Committee on Regulatory Affairs
Overview
Requires registered land surveyors (Surveyors) to observe minimum standards of practice to best represent and disclose locations of corners, boundary lines and monuments.
History
Land surveyor is defined as a person whose knowledge of the mathematical and physical sciences, principles of land surveying and evidence gathering acquired by professional education or practical experience, or both, is qualified to practice land surveying as attested by registration as a land surveyor (A.R.S. § 32-101).
An applicant for professional registration as a land surveyor must: 1) Be of good moral character; 2) Be actively engaged in education or experience, or both, in the profession for which registration is sought for at least six years; and 3) Unless exempt, pass the required in-training and professional examinations (A.R.S. § 32-122.01).
Provisions
1. Requires Surveyors to observe minimum standards of practice prescribed by the State Board of Technical Registration. (Sec. 1)
2. States that the minimum standards require Surveyors to represent the locations of corner positions and boundary lines consistent with the best evidence available. (Sec. 1)
3. Stipulates that if a Surveyor rejects an existing monument, the Surveyor must create a results-of-survey drawing to disclose the evidence, file the drawing in the Office of the County Recorder, and provide a copy to the client. (Sec. 1)
