State Representative's Report (David Bosshard, Bosshard Surveying)
The WSLS website is playing an ever increasing role in the business of the society. This year all standing committee chairs will be placing their updates on the WSLS website under WSLS Home > Committees. If you are involved with any of these committees, please see the information posted there. Individual chapter reports will be posted in the WSLS Home > Chapters area of the website.
The last Board of Directors meeting was held on March 26, 2011. A number of topics were discussed at the meeting, many of which will require the involvement of our chapter to ensure our voice is heard at the state level. I will focus on issues that are important to the chapter, but as mentioned above, all reports can be found on the WSLS website. I would also like to encourage chapter participation on state committees.
Topics of importance:
- AE-7 changes are being proposed. We will be discussing this as a chapter are the next meeting. Make your voice heard and let a board member know what changes you would like to see.
- The Ethics and Standards of Practice chair Tom Leslie reports that the Shorewest/Blueline issue "appears" to have been taken care of as Blueline is no longer mentioned on the Shorewest website. No complaints have been received as of March 23.
- The new ALTA Standards are in effect, check to ensure you are using the correct certification.
- UPS, if you ship via UPS you will be pleased to know that using a new program with WSLS can save you up to 26%. Information can be found here http://bit.ly/fKvOwt
- Northwest Chapter will be dedicating a plaque to long time surveyor Ken Olson on April 15th. Information can be found at http://bit.ly/fOTXck
The next Board of Directors meeting will be held on Saturday May 21, 2011. If there are issues that you would like brought up at the state level, please notify me, I can be reached by email at
