Bill summary

Senate amendment to the 2nd edition makes the following changes.

Amends proposed new GS 89C-19.2 to provide that nothing in the statute is to be construed as removing civil liability for damage by a professional land surveyor (was, nothing in the statute is to be construed as giving any civil liability incurred from those actions). Also amends the statute to provide that no professional land surveyor person under the surveyor's supervision has a civil cause of action against a landowner or lessee for personal injury or property damage incurred while on the land for purposes allowed under the statute, except when the damages and injury were willfully or deliberately caused by the landowner or lessee (was, no landowner whose land a professional land surveyor enters under this statute is liable for any injury or damage sustained by that professional land surveyor entering upon the landowner's land).
