Expert Committee Reviews Proposed Rules for Cadastral Survey

25 July 2008

In June, the expert committee reviewing the proposed Rules for Cadastral Survey held a two day meeting to evaluate some of the main issues raised during public consultation. The committee made decisions about the shape of the final Rules and developed solutions in agreement with the Surveyor-General.

The committee’s decisions were on the following matters of greatest concern to public submitters:

• Boundary marking
• Boundary marks
• Accuracy tolerances
• Water boundary accuracy
• Area accuracy
• Orientation
• Geodetic connection
• Witness marks and permanent reference marks
• Monumentation CSD
• CSD plan.

The expert committee plans to meet again to consider the remaining issues in late August 2008, with a final meeting tentatively planned for October 2008.
