By Oregon law they have 10 days to mark for survey, 48 hrs to mark for excavation deeper than 1 foot. So if you are going to be driving control monuments longer than 1 foot in the course of your survey that qualifies for 48 hr. service. And yes, they insist that we need to call for that.
@norman-oklahoma wow. A county GIS shape file might be within 18 inches.
@jph Remember driving a 2′ Rebar into the ground counts as excavation, at least in NC it does.
In Oregon, not following the right-of-entry notification process can result in a complaint to the Board of Registration, with potential of suspension or even loss of license.
Board bulletins recently have examples of investigations of non-compliance with right-of-entry notification. It’s a big deal ’round here.
There is some question in my mind whether Right of Entry under ORS 672.047 applies to topographic mapping projects. But certainly the surveyor who enters land to do only topo without notifying is going to be subject to its discipline.
