Hobbs, Upchurch & Associates has five dedicated field surveying crews
with the ability to expand to seven crews if needed. We also have two GPS
crews. Our surveyors are trained for design support surveying and understand
the importance of proper layout. Our survey crews are pre-qualified by the
North Carolina Department of Transportation to perform surveys throughout
the state. 
Utility System Projects
HUA has surveyed many water and sewer systems in North and South Carolina.
HUA uses its in-house surveyors for all its water and wastewater design
and construction projects. Our surveyors have experience in monumentation
and setting property lines for governmental purposes such as establishing
extraterritorial jurisdiction, annexation areas, and Department of Defense
property boundaries.
Site Development Projects
Our in-house surveying professionals also provided site surveying for all
HUA site development projects including commercial, industrial, recreational,
and residential projects. Surveying for these projects involve a wide range
of facilities with many different types of components within each facility.
Following is a brief summary of general surveying projects not related
to design or site development projects.
Camp Lejeune, North Carolina
Survey of proposed telephone cable crossings on several state-maintained
waterways, including the Intracoastal Waterway and the New River. Prepared
easement maps for state and application to acquire dredging permits for
proposed crossings. Topographic survey and design of 30 miles of tank trails
throughout Marine Corps Base.
Caswell County, North Carolina
Boundary survey of the County for the NC Geodetic Survey. Also set monuments
at selected road crossings and the four corners of the county.
Columbus County, North Carolina
2,200 acre boundary survey and woodlands locations of Cattail Bay Farm.
Ft. Bragg and Hoke County, North Carolina
Retraced approximately four miles of boundary line between Fort Bragg Military
Reservation and Hoke County, North Carolina. Survey crews identified and
reestablished corners, identified encroachments, established GPS monumentation
and performed courthouse and title research to firmly establish boundaries
with the Hoke County Register of Deeds. All monuments, which were concrete
based with brass disks per Dept. of Defense standards, were provided by
the military reservation and tied to North Carolina Grid Coordinates. More
than 50 land corners were established. Surveying services were performed
to suburban boundary standard as defined by ACSM standards. Deliverables
included the generation of mylar maps suitable for recordation at the Hoke
County Register of Deeds. All maps were generated per strict military contract
standards.
Foxfire Resort & Country Club, Moore County, North Carolina
300-acre boundary survey for golf course transfer to new ownership.
Red Springs, North Carolina
Boundary survey as assurance that the acreage was correct and to know the
physical location of all corners. The finished product was a final map prepared
for recording, a metes and bounds description, and a surveyor's title insurance
report. The initial investigation revealed that all NCGS control monuments
within two miles were destroyed. Previous survey information was utilized
to establish the NAD 83 base meridian for the survey. Discrepancies between
title information and physical evidence were identified and either resolved
or illustrated on the final map. Thirty-three monuments were recovered or
set at property corners and along the boundaries. Additional physical evidence
(ditches, overhead electric lines, private roads and public right of way)
influencing the property's title was surveyed and illustrated on the final
map. This map illustrated 83.64 acres and its relationship to major roads.
Spartanburg County, South Carolina
Surveying services for eight miles of gas line route with 40 property owners.
Included preparation of easement maps, deed research and stakeout of final
location of line, for Piedmont Natural Gas.
State of North Carolina
Hobbs, Upchurch & Associates performed County Boundary Surveys for the State
of North Carolina. The project involves reestablishing county lines and
tying these lines to primary control marks as set by NCGS. Survey crews
utilized global positioning systems and traditional surveys throughout the
state. The work consisted of locating, surveying, marking and mapping county
boundaries in North Carolina. This also includes records research, field
search and recovery, reconnaissance, mark setting, secondary control surveys
and traditional retracement surveys. Hobbs, Upchurch & Associates has completed
two other such projects for the Jones/Lenoir County Line and Chatham/Orange
County Line, and are currently performing a fourth county line survey for
the Cabarrus/Rowan County Line.

Cross sectioning of approximately 30 miles of the Lumber River and its associate
tributaries for the purpose of developing new floodplain mapping for North
Carolina.
Winston-Salem and Forsyth County, North Carolina
