Fla. Admin. Code R. 62B-56.080

Current through Reg. 50, No. 124; June 25, 2024
Section 62B-56.080 - Survey Requirements
(1) The certified survey of the subject property, which is required by paragraph 62B-56.050(3)(i), F.A.C., shall include the following information:
(a) The property owner's name.
(b) All vertical data specified on the survey shall be referenced to NAVD 88 (U.S. survey foot). A note clearly identifying the control monument, the setting agency, stamping, and NAVD 88 elevation shall be provided on the survey or in the surveyor's report.
(c) The location of the property in relation to bordering roads and streets.
(d) The location of the two nearest Department Range Monuments (DNR R-Monument). Refer to the Department's Bureau of Beaches and Coastal Systems web page to view maps that provide the Range Monuments at: http://www.dep.state.fl.us/beaches/data/coastmon.htm.
(e) Property boundaries and right-of-ways.
(f) Legal description of the property.
(g) All horizontal coordinates, bearings, and distances referenced to the control provided upon the most recently recorded Map of Record for the Coastal Construction Control Line (CCCL) in the county where the subject property is located. Data should include a minimum of one benchmark as a source of horizontal measurement or any published second order or higher horizontal control point.
(h) The recording date, book, and page of the Map of Record of the CCCL as recorded in the county public records where the subject property resides.
(i) The horizontal location of the CCCL for the full width of the subject property, including the location and full stamping of the two nearest Department or published second order or higher horizontal control points.
(j) The horizontal location of the erosion control line, if one exists.
(k) The horizontal locations of the contour lines corresponding to elevation 0.00, the approximate contour of the mean high water line, and the contour of the seasonal high water line.
(l) The horizontal location of the seaward line of vegetation and outlines of existing native beach-dune vegetation. Each contiguous stand shall be circumscribed at the outermost edge of the vegetation or the drip line of a tree canopy and shall be identified as being one of the following categories:
1. Beach-dune (grasses and groundcovers).
2. Coastal strand (saw palmetto and salt pruned shrubs).
3. Hammock (overhead forest canopy).
4. Wetland (mangrove, marsh, or swamp).
5. Exotics (greater than fifty percent Australian pine, Brazilian pepper, Australian scaevola, or other invasive nuisance species).
(m) When the topographic contours of the subject property are uniform in nature in the shore-normal direction throughout the project area show; a minimum of three transects; one transect per lot line; and one transect per 100 feet of shore-normal direction, with data points at 25-foot intervals and at one-foot or greater changes in elevation on each transect. In project areas that are irregular or not uniform in nature or where abnormal topographic entities exist in a beach-dune system, provide sufficient transect data points and elevations to establish a two-foot contour interval throughout the beach-dune system.
(n) Dimensions and locations of the foundation outlines of any existing structures on the subject property and the bearings and distances perpendicular from the CCCL to the seaward corners of the foundations of any major structures and public infrastructure or the seaward limit of the crest or cap at the extremities of any coastal or shore protection structure; and,
(o) Dimensions and locations of the foundation outlines of any existing structures on adjacent properties and distances from the CCCL to the seaward corners of the foundations of any existing structures or the seaward limit of any coastal or shore-protection structure.
(2) When conventional route surveying is used to locate the CCCL the following information shall be shown, reported, and become a part of the drawing:
(a) The location traverse showing all adjusted angles, distances, and directions.
(b) At least two CCCL Map of Record control points or any two published second order or higher horizontal control points shall be used in the location traverse. The bearing and distance from the nearest control monuments to the points of intersection on the CCCL; and,
(c) The survey shall provide the Florida State Plane Coordinates referenced to NAD 83/90 (U.S. survey foot) for two consecutive property corners on the subject property and the perpendicular bearings and distances to the most recently recorded CCCL, including the down-line bearing and distance from the nearest point of intersection of the CCCL and the established perpendicular intersection.
(3) When Global Positioning Systems (GPS) are used, the following must be shown, reported, and become a part of the drawing:
(a) A tabular listing of all Geodetic Control Stations occupied and checked into, along with their latitude, longitude, State Plane Coordinate, zone, and specifications of units (U.S. survey foot).
(b) The software brand and version number used for the baseline or real-time processing and or adjustment.
(c) Identification of the Geodetic Control that was held fixed or used as Base Station installation. The Geodetic Control that was checked or allowed to take adjustment. When using real-time kinematic carrier phase processing, at least one additional control monument shall be occupied and a statistical comparison to the published values.
(d) A general statement of accuracy for each newly established coordinate.
(e) A graphic representation of the final fixed position data depicting the three-dimensional vector baseline established between the control station and the newly established stations, including three-dimensional loop closure statistics on the checked monumentation.
(f) A tabular listing of all newly established positions obtained from the final fixed vectors which includes their latitude, longitude, State Plane Coordinate, zone, grid Azimuth (convergence angle), scale factor, and specification of units (U.S. survey foot). Newly established stations shall be identified as such. The number of decimal places displayed shall reflect the level of precision of the work performed; and,
(g) The survey drawings shall include the following notes or equivalent:
1. The procedures and or network design meet the Geodetic Accuracy Standards and Specifications for using GPS Related Positioning as set forth by the Federal Geodetic Control Subcommittee in their most current publication for 3rd order class 1 horizontal control survey or provide the horizontal accuracy for all new positions established as a positional tolerance.
2. The vertical accuracy for all new positions established as a positional tolerance.
3. The survey shall provide the Florida State Plane Coordinates referenced to NAD 83/90 (U.S. survey foot) for two consecutive property corners on the subject property and the perpendicular bearings and distances to the most recently recorded CCCL, including the down line bearing and distance from the nearest point of intersection of the CCCL and the established perpendicular intersection; and,
4. For general location purposes, the survey shall provide a bearing and distance from the State Plane Coordinated property corners to the nearest Department range baseline monitoring location.
