Land surveyors have an important role in storm water management. That often includes knowing about:

•  elevation certificates
•  water quality and SWIM buffers
•  open space requirements
•  Floodplain Maps and Letters of Map Amendment/Revision.

More than 80 surveyors and engineers attended a continuing education workshop held on Dec. 11, 2012.
