Experience and Education Matter:
As the principal of FRD Surveying LLC, Frank DeSantis, PLS (Professional Land Surveyor) offers something unique. Less than five percent of land surveyors have achieved advanced degrees dedicated to their field. In Frank’s case, one of his former employers was so impressed with Frank’s work that they actually sponsored his studies for completion of New Jersey Institute of Technology’s Bachelor of Science in Engineering Technology, specifically the Surveying Engineering Technology degree.
Frank’s educational credentials are coupled with more than thirty years of hands-on experience. This includes survey project management associated with road widening work, construction projects, coastal work development, farmland preservation and more.
New Jersey has specified laws when it comes to licensing requirements for land surveyors that are enumerated in NJSA 45:8-35. Frank earned the distinction as a Licensed New Jersey land surveyor in 1999 and subsequently became a member of Pennsylvania’s licensed surveyors in 2003. Legislation effective January 1, 1991, requires graduation from a board approved curriculum in surveying of four years or more to sit for the land surveying exam in New Jersey.
