California Surveyors Forums

So who's responsibility is it when a County (or City) performs a pavement overlay?
It has always been my interpretation that the County Surveyor (county project), or the City Surveyor (city project) is responsible to prepare Pre-Construction Corner Records to preserve such controlling monuments before the pavement rehab takes place?

Your thoughts (and interpretations) on this???

Either prepare the CRs with in house staff, or spec the Contractor to hire a land surveyor to do the same.

8771. Setting of monuments in general; monument perpetuation
(d) The governmental agency performing or permitting construction or maintenance
work is responsible for ensuring that either the governmental agency or landowner performing
the construction or maintenance work provides for monument perpetuation required by this
section.

Also keep in mind...
6730.2 Legislative intent -requirement for responsible charge at state and local government entities
(c) The designated person in responsible charge of professional civil engineering work of any department or agency of the state, city, county, city and county, district, or special district pursuant to this section is responsible for compliance with subdivisions (b) and (c) of Section 8771.
