While going through a box of office junk I forgot about since retiring, I came across a law requiring FL surveyors to file a copy of every elevation certificate they produce with the Division of Emergency Management. (and if you don't, and get caught, you will be fined)
Section 472.0366, Florida Statutes (2021), outlines the requirements for
surveyors and mappers in preparing an elevation certificate. In relevant part, Sec.
472.0366(2) states: "Beginning January 1, 2017, a surveyor and mapper shall, within
30 days after completion [of an elevation certificate], submit to the [Division of
Emergency Management] a copy of each elevation certificate that he or she
completes. The copy must be unaltered, except that the surveyor and mapper may
redact the name of the property owner. The copy need not be signed and sealed when
submitted to the division; however, an original signed and sealed copy must be
retained in the surveyor and mapper's records as prescribed by rule of the board.

How many other States have a similar requirement?
