Arc Surveying & Mapping was contracted in 2013 by DIMCO, a USACE contractor, to perform a boundary survey of three parcels totaling 120 acres along the Ohio River in Hickman, Kentucky to prepare easements for relief wells. Arc Surveying complied with Kentucky standards and USACE specifications. Original survey monuments from the early 1900s were recovered through GPS and total station methods. This project showcased Arc Surveying's expertise in surveying and mapping for USACE projects.

USACE Relief Wells – Boundary Easement Hickman, Kentucky
During 2013 Arc Surveying & Mapping, Inc. was contracted by DIMCO, INC. a Memphis USACE
survey and mapping contractor to perform a boundary survey on three parcels totaling 120
acres of land. The intent was to prepare surveys and descriptions for the conveyance of land
easements to the Corps of Engineers for the installation of relief wells along the Ohio River
Mainline Levee. In addition to the Minimum Standards for Land Surveyors in The
Commonwealth of Kentucky, Arc Surveying and Mapping had to comply with the specifications
and survey standards of the USACE.
All title and deed research was performed by one of our Professional Land Surveyors and the
boundary lines were then set in accordance with boundary law as it related to field evidence
and title information.
Original survey monuments were recovered by our crews using both RTK GPS and conventional
total stations. In addition, several static GPS sessions were completed to compute Kentucky
State Plane Coordinates. Interestingly, several survey monuments dating back to the early
1900s were recovered in the wooded portions of this property.
Arc Surveying & Mapping has teamed with DIMCO on several projects throughout the last 5
years. This boundary survey was one of many that allowed us to showcase our technology,
management, and expertise in the surveying and mapping industry.
