Minimum Standards
These standards were first adopted by
the Kansas Society of Land Surveyors at the Annual
Meeting in 1978, amended February 1988 and October
23, 1998. It is the intent of these Standards to provide
the surveyors and the recipients of surveys a realistic
and prudent yardstick of adequate surveying performance.
Includes KSLS-approved revisions of 10/17/05 and 10/20/06.
Changes in italics were approved by the KSLS Board
and ratified by the general membership December 2009
for clarification as requested by the Kansas State
Board of Technical Professions. The Rules and Regulations
that reference these Minimum Standards were adopted
by the Kansas State Board of Technical Professions
on May 24, 2010.
