Has anyone ever heard of...

...McGowan Design or Civic Design Group in Victorville or Hisperia?

Just got an interesting blurb from them regarding surveying but can't find a connection to a license of any kind.

Listed under "Manta" under "Drafting Services: http://www.manta.com/c/mmb6zbz/civic-design-group

Under MerchantCircle, 1st among its services is listed "Land and boundary surveying with an LS # of a surveyor listed as living in Victorville. There are also a number of services listed that fall under the practice of engineering. Interesting.

A person named Ryan McGowan has a LinkedIn profile listing him as the owner of Civic Design Group. A search for Mr. McGowan on the BPELSG license verification page turned up no results.

Got all that, Evan. Very little info. Too much to read between the lines.

They will require one if one is not on file and then you can see who the patsy, I mean surveyor, is.
Take care,
