-� r On -Call Construction Surveying Services RFP No. 19-090 Santa Ana Public Works Agency certificates, including owner's certificates, surveyor's/engineer's certificates, county certificates, etc... • The next step is to verify that we have on hand any necessary clearance letters, informational sheets, street name approvals, approved tentative, conditions of approval, etc... that may be needed, and their status, whether provided or still needed. • We then verify that the top of all sheets have the necessary information such as the date of survey, tract number, surveyor's/engineers name and number, total acreage, number of numbered lots, number of lettered lots, and sheet number together with the total number of sheets. • We then begin checking the individual map sheets. Are there any land locked lots? Are there north arrows and scales on every page with correct, convenient orientation to facilitate reading of the map? Has the intended use of lettered lots been shown? Are the street names and widths shown? Is the map legible, and have the proper fonts and proper sized lettering been used? • Then we turn to monumentation and verify that proper monumentation has been found and used, that each monument has been properly called out, described, and referenced. We check to see that monuments required to be set have been set or are called out as to be set. • The next step is to verify that all existing easements have been properly delineated, labeled, and tied down, and that all easements being dedicated are shown and properly noted as being dedicated and accepted. • Then we turn our attention to correct and sufficient boundary location. Has the map been based on proper survey control? Has prorating and proportioning been performed properly? Have deeds been interpreted correctly? Have relationships to adjacent lines of record been handled properly? Have the methods of establishment been shown? Do all annotations on the map match those shown on the map traverse closures and do all closures close? • The final items to check cover all miscellaneous items, including spelling, sufficient details, clarity of drafting, and any other items relevant to state law, local ordinances, and professional survey practice. We have developed a "digital" method of map checking in order to be able to easily transmit all check data, including map mark-ups. In addition to making the communication between all parties far easier, and faster, the mark-ups are much easier for the submitting engineer/surveyor to read and understand. Typed corrections encourage "thoroughness" on the part of the checker, contributing to more thorough understanding by the user. We are the first, in this area, to have moved from hand marked maps to digital, and to date, remain the leaders in the area.
