That attitude assures battle lines will continue to prevent opportunities for the surveying profession to grow.
I'm licensed in three states where surveyors can perform tasks generally reserved for civil engineering in most of the country (grading plans, sediment control, storm water management and storm drain design, etc.). The failure rate for surveyors on the engineering related state exams is substantially higher than the failure rate on the NCEES exams or the state specific survey law questions.

For the first half of my career I worked for engineering organizations (a private civil engineer and the engineering division of a City). I did grading design, drainage and hydrology, all of that. I don't miss it, especially FEMA related tasks, for a while we were inflicted with flood plain subdivisions, LOMRs, etc. I even did Title 24 energy calcs on houses, the software was called Micropass.
I am interested 35 years experience located in Alexandria at this time?ÿ
