I would like to put it under Legal Issues too, but this is good news to the advantage of Connecticut surveyors:

Do surveyors in Connecticut have a right of entry as we do here in Ontario ?

2011 Connecticut Code
Title 52 Civil Actions
Chapter 925 Statutory Rights of Action and Defenses
Sec. 52-557o. Liability of land surveyors.
Sec. 52-557o. Liability of land surveyors. No action for trespass shall lie against any surveyor licensed under chapter 391 or person acting at the direction of any such licensed surveyor who enters upon land other than the land being surveyed without causing any damage to such other land in order to perform a survey, provided no such surveyor or person acting at the direction of such surveyor shall enter upon any land owned by a railroad company, as defined in section 16-1, which is within fifty feet of a railroad track without first obtaining written permission from the railroad company, which written permission shall not be unreasonably withheld. Nothing herein shall relieve such licensed surveyor or person from liability for actual damages caused by such entry upon such other property.
As you can see we do have 'right of entry'. Although a piece of paper is no match for a motor vehicle or any weapon.
