1. Contact project manager to review requirements prior to performing work.
2. Visit site to understand scope prior to submitting bid, including meeting with Owner to
ascertain location of private on-site utilities.
3. Furnish title of survey, property location map, numerical and graphic scales, north arrow,
legend of symbols and abbreviations, bench mark datum, stamp or seal of registered
surveyor, and date.
4. Georeference survey to PA State Plane South NAD83 (feet) survey datum.
5. Provide Cadd electronic files at 1:1, in AutoCAD world coordinate system, with proper
north orientation. Survey base information shall be shown in this coordinate system with
bearings located in proper alignment.
6. Provide minimum three permanent control points/benchmarks (within site parcel on
permanent elements such as fire hydrant, manhole, inlet), indicating vertical elevation, and
northings and eastings.
7. Ensure that multiple layers (including spot elevations) do not read on top of each other
when viewed digitally or when printed. Survey will be used in 2-D as base mapping for
detailed design.
8. Separate, by layer, each component of survey, and label layers descriptively.
Boundary Survey Requirements
Provide boundary survey of Project Property, as follows:
1. Plot meets and bounds of overall property based on Deed Description. Label bearings and
distances of each property line segment.

• On grid approximately 20’-0 on center.
b. Plot contours at one foot interval, with tolerance of 0.25 feet, and at proper
elevation in Cadd file.
C. Locate Utilities:
a. Show location, size, material of pipe, direction of flow, gradient, surface and invert
elevation of sanitary and storm sewers; location, type and size of water and gas
lines, manholes, valve boxes, meter boxes, hydrants, fountains.; location of utility
poles, electric and telephone lines and fire alarm boxes; include all utilities above and
below ground. Locate oil and gas wells where applicable.
