COMMITTEE ACTIVITY REPORT
 

I will be attending the ACSM/NSPS Conference and Technology Exhibition, being held in conjunction with CLSA, NALS & WFPS, March 18-23 in Las Vegas .

 

At this meeting Jerry Goodson will be installed a President of NSPS.  A great honor for Jerry and TSPS and more evidence of his continued dedication to the surveying profession.

 

At the TSPS 2004 Annual Business Meeting, three motions relative to ACSM/NSPS were presented and passed:

 

1) that the 2004-2005 TSPS Officers & Board of Directors investigate offering to its members, by the time of the 2006 membership renewal notices, a jointly billed discounted NSPS membership dues structure arrangement similar to that of many other state surveying societies and to participate in the announced membership contest

 

2) that the Board of Directors investigate membership in one or more of the regional organizations of state surveying societies, including but not limited to the Area ¾ Governors and the Western Federation of Surveying Societies (WestFed)

 

3) that the Board of Directors consider perpetually inviting, with funding provided, at least two authorized representatives of NSPS to each and every Annual Meeting

 

Respectfully Submitted

Pat rick A. Smith, RPLS
