BLM tests new surveyor certification

Pete K. Brands of Bellingham is among 69 professional land surveyors nationwide to receive a new federal certification from the U.S. Bureau of Land Management.

Brands, who works at Pacific Surveying & Engineering, was among a test group of land surveyors to participate in the new program called CFedS, for Certified Federal Surveyor.

The CFedS program, which has been approved by the U.S. Secretary of the Interior, was designed to improve expertise in the land surveying community for work on federal and Indian trust lands.

To earn the CFedS designation, surveyors must complete approximately 120 hours of course materials prepared by the BLM’s National Training Center and pass an exam. A CFedS must complete 10 hours of continuing education annually.
