Some of you may be aware from previous regional
newsletter/emails, Senate Bill 194/Assembly Bill 271 is being debated before the
Wisconsin Legislature about surveying and mapping licensure and practice.
ASPRS HQ as well as MAPPS have been commenting on this bill as you can see in
this
letter from ASPRS Executive Director James Plasker to the bills committee
members. Dave Hart, President of Continental Mapping and Pat Olson, Aerometric
have also testified this past week before a senate hearing. If this bill will
have an impact on your operations, you may want to act on this in some form. If
you have any questions or comments, contact Dave Hart
(dhart@continentalmapping.com), and Pat Olson (polson@aerometric.com) since they
are directly involved in this matter.
