3 . The location of water boundaries must be depicted on the final survey with bearing and distances so that a closed traverse <br /> can be computed. The area(s) below the water boundary must not be included within the final acreage tabulation . The <br /> methodology used for establishing the water boundary must be indicated in a note on the final survey drawing. Surveys that <br /> require the mean high water line to be located must be prepared in accordance with the Florida Coastal Mapping Act of 1974, <br /> Chapter 177, Part 11 , Florida Statutes and Chapter 18-5, Florida Administrative Code. <br /> 4 . The accuracy of survey measurements must be substantiated by the computation of a closed traverse; the relative error of <br /> closure permissible must be no greater than 1 : 10, 000. <br /> 5 . All land corners controlling the description of each ownership, if not found, must be set (including block corners). Any <br /> public land Survey corner, original or purported, used in this survey must be verified or re-established in accordance with the <br /> Manual of Surveying Instructions, 1973 (Manual), prepared by the U. S . Department of Interior. <br /> 6 . The surveyor must locate all above-ground fixed improvements and any evidence of underground fixed improvements within <br /> the acquisition parcel. <br /> 7. Acreage must be determined for each category of land used to determine final purchase price, if required. Examples of land <br /> categories are jurisdictional wetlands, submerged lands if owned by a private owner and uplands. A closed traverse must be <br /> shown on the survey drawing with acreage categories delineated in order to verify each of the areas. Each individual area of <br /> each category of land must have the acreage written within its boundaries on the survey drawing. The number of decimal places <br /> used should reflect the level of precision for the work performed . <br /> FCT Survey Procedures <br /> rev. 11 /04 1 <br />
