2009 Manual Signing Ceremony
I did an online search and found this from a July 2009 NSPS News and Views issue:
New BLM Manual to be unveiled!An unveiling ceremony for the ??next edition? of the BLM Manual of Surveying Instructions will occur on September 24 (Lobby Day) at the main office of the Department of the Interior in Washington, DC, beginning at 4 PM EDT. The primary speaker will be Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar. In addition to BLM officials and Congressional speakers, ACSM Executive Director Curt Sumner will also participate. This ??next edition? is the first update to the manual since 1973.All ACSM Lobby Day participants are invited to attend the ceremony and the reception to immediately follow it. Anyone wishing to attend should contact Curt Sumner ([email protected]) within the next two weeks so that a comprehensive list of ACSM attendees can be presented to BLM in order for access to the ceremony to be arranged.I am interested in getting a copy of the NSPS publication article that was published later in 2009 that has photos of the ceremony. I remember seeing the article at the time, but I’m not sure if it was published in News and Views or another serial publication that NSPS members subscribed to. Was anyone here in attendance or does anyone still have the late 2009 issue? I’d like to get a scan of the article if possible.I searched the NSPS website and found that their News and Views archive only goes back to May 23, 2011.More to be revealed…. ????
