H. 5115
A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO DECLARE WEDNESDAY, MARCH 21, 2018, AS SOUTH CAROLINA PROFESSIONAL LAND SURVEYORS DAY THROUGHOUT THE STATE AND TO ENCOURAGE ALL SOUTH CAROLINIANS TO RECOGNIZE THE MANY CONTRIBUTIONS MADE BY LAND SURVEYORS TO OUR COMMUNITIES.

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives has learned that National Surveyors Week will take place March 18-24, 2018, and the members are pleased to salute the Palmetto State’s land surveyors during this particularly appropriate time; and

Whereas, land surveying is a science requiring great precision and responsibility in determining exact measurements to define boundaries and distances; and

Whereas, professional land surveyors give shape to our transportation routes, water systems, and communities while creating permanent records of land ownership for future generations; and

Whereas, the people of the Palmetto State depend on the technical expertise and professional ethics of land surveyors to protect their interests when engaging in land transactions; and

Whereas, it is with great pleasure that the South Carolina House of Representatives also recognizes the work of the South Carolina Society of Professional Land Surveyors, which dedicates itself to the promotion and protection of the profession of land surveying as a social and economic influence vital to the affairs of individual men and women, as well as of the community as a whole. Now therefore,

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, declare Wednesday, March 21, 2018, as South Carolina Professional Land SURVEYORS DAY throughout the State and encourage all South Carolinians to recognize the many contributions made by land surveyors to our communities.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the South Carolina Society of Professional Land Surveyors.
