Colorado Revised Statute 18-4-515 Entry to survey property-exception to criminal trespass.
Dear Property Owner,
Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association. Inc. and its consultants, Ulteig Engineers and Lamp. Rynearson& Associates will
be conducting ground survey work on or near your property starting in November, 2012. Previous attempts to contact you about the
surveys have been unsuccessful therefore we are giving notice that the surveyors will be entering your property pursuant to the
Colorado Revised Statute 18-4-515 Entry to survey property-exception to criminal trespass.
The survey work is being done on behalf of Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association, Inc. Survey data is being collected to
evaluate existing conditions of transmission facilities and to recover and verify survey monuments.
Lamp, Rynearson & Associates will be performing the surveys and estimate that 2 entries onto your property will be required to
complete the survey. The crews will conduct the survey work on or near your property and will take precautions with access to these
areas to not cause any disturbance or inconvenience to property owners. We estimate that these surveys will be completed by
December 31',2012
Per Colorado Revised Statute 18-4-515, we are asking that you provide us with the name of each person who occupies the land as a
tenant or lessee, whether on a permanent or temporary basis.
We have attached a copy of the Colorado State Statute 18-4-515 for your reference. Please review it and if you have any questions or
concerns regarding the survey work or access, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,

18-4-515 CRS
(I) Effective July I, 1992, no person shall be in violation of the trespass laws of this part 5 if the
requirements of this section are met. The provisions of this section provide an exception to the trespass
laws only and do not affect or supersede the provisions and requirements of articles 1 to 7 of title 38,
C.R.S., concerning condemnation proceedings, notwithstanding any laws to the contrary.
(2) Any person who is licensed or registered as a professional land surveyor pursuant to section 12-25-
214, C.R.S., or who is under the direct supervision of such a person as an employee, agent, or
representative, may enter public or private land to investigate and utilize boundary evidence and to
perform boundary surveys if the notice requirement in this subsection (2) is met. The notice of the
pending survey shall contain the identity of the party for whom the survey is being performed and the
purpose for which the survey will be performed, the employer of the surveyor, the identity of the
surveyor, the dates the land will be entered, the time, location, and timetable for such entry, the
estimated completion date, the estimated number of entries which will be required, and a statement
requesting the landowner to provide the surveyor with the name of each person who occupies the land as
a tenant or lessee, whether on a permanent or a temporary basis. Nothing in this subsection (2) shall be
deemed to confer liability upon a landowner who fails or refuses to provide such requested statement. At
least fourteen days before the desired date of entry the professional land surveyor shall cause such notice
to be given to the landowner by certified mail, return receipt requested, and by regular mail. Any
landowner may waive the requirement that notice be given by certified mail, return receipt requested,
and by regular mail. The waivers described in this subsection (2) may be given orally or in writing.
(3) If a landowner does not acknowledge receipt of the notice within fourteen days of such receipt, the
professional land surveyor or other persons described in subsection (2) of this section shall have the
right to enter the land pursuant to the specifications given in the notice. If a landowner acknowledges
receipt of the notice within fourteen days of receipt, such landowner has the right to modify the time and
other provisions of the surveyor's access, as long as such modifications do not unreasonably restrict
completion of the survey.
(4) All persons described in subsection(2) of this section who enter land pursuant to and for a purpose
described in this section shall carry upon their person at all times during entry and stay upon the land
sufficient identification to identify themselves and their employer or principal, and shall present such
identification upon request.
(5) Persons described in subsection (2) of this section shall be liable for actual damages caused during
entry and stay upon a landowner's land. No professional land surveyor or person under such surveyor's
direct supervision shall have a civil cause of action against a landowner or lessee for personal injury or
property damage incurred while on the land for purposes consistent with those described in subsection
(2) of this section, except when such damages and injury were willfully or deliberately caused by the
landowner.
