Boundary Survey Project

For the transfer of real property, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers New York District was responsible to obtain a boundary survey of the STRATFORD ARMY ENGINE PLANT (FORMERLY AIR FORCE PLANT NO. 43). The SOW included 3 separate parcels of property. Tract 1 - 51 acres, Tract 2 – 21 acres and Tract 3 – 3.5 acres. The timely completion of this survey was critical in the transfer of property.
Two (2) crews were dispatched to the site. One crew was to commence the location of all structures, fences, walls, etc. The other crew was to conduct research at the local county clerk office. The research included deeds, recorded surveys, Connecticut State Highway monuments, and easements.
Once field and filed data was collected the crews returned to our office. The collected field and filed data was processed and plotted. The recorded lines were than “overlayed” on the collected field data and a “best fit” was determined with excellent results. Once plots were complete one crew returned to the site to monument boundary corners. Upon their return to our office the survey was updated to reflect the monuments set and metes and bounds descriptions were prepared.
Surveys were completed in the Connecticut State Plane NAD83 system and in a data format acceptable to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers New York District.
