Survey Instructions

1. Standards of Performance

Surveys must be made in compliance with the Minimum Standard Detail Requirements for ALTA/NSPS Land Title Surveys (Effective February 23, 2016), as adopted by the American Land Title Association and the American Congress on Surveying and Mapping (“Minimum Standard”). The document referenced can be found at http://alta.org/forms.

Of the additional responsibilities enumerated within Table A - Optional Survey Responsibilities and Specifications (pages 8 through 10 of the Minimum Standard), the survey will comply with the following items: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6a, 6b, 7a, 8, 9, 10a, 10b, 11b, 12, 13, 16, 17, 18, and 19.

In addition, the survey must comply with the following requirements when applicable:

1. If a change to the building’s footprint is proposed, OR if any portion of the site contains a Special or Moderate flood hazard area (including 500-year), wetland, or Coastal High Hazard Area, the survey must also comply with Table A, item 5. Contours may not exceed 1-foot vertical intervals, except that 2-foot and 5-foot vertical intervals may be used where the mean site gradient exceeds 5 percent and 10 percent, respectively. Where curbs and/or gutters exist, show top of curb and flow line elevations.

2. If any portion of the site is in a Special or Moderate flood hazard area, the survey will:

1. show the boundaries of the 1 percent annual chance flood area (100-year), 0.2 percent annual chance flood area (500-year), floodways, and coastal high hazard areas on site, and

2. indicate floodplain elevation, and

3. show the site elevation at the building entrances, lowest habitable finished floor, and basement for each primary building.

Take flood hazard elevations from the applicable Federal Flood Insurance Rate Map. Where such is not available, take the elevations from available State or local equivalent data, or when not available, work in conjunction with borrower's engineer to determine. 223f refinances need not show the 500-year flood elevations.

3. If a blanket easement covers the subject property (e.g. a utility easement with an unspecified location), show on the map/plat the location of the current installation that is located within or traverses the property under provisions of a blanket easement. To the extent a blanket easement covers more than the subject property, the portions of that blanket easement that extend beyond the bounds of the subject property need not be shown on the map/plat.

4. Indicate the following basic information:

• Project Name

• Name of the jurisdiction in which the project is located,

• Area of the site, in both acres and square feet,

• Whether adjacent streets are public or private,

• Legal description, and

• Ownership of adjacent parcels.

5. The survey must show the entire site. If the project includes offsite beneficial easements or licenses, please consult with the Office of Hospital Facilities (“OHF”) for the applicable survey requirements.

6. The standard certification required as part of the Minimum Standard will include by name the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), in the space entitled “(names of others as negotiated with the client)”.

2. Date of the Survey and Borrower’s Survey Certification

Current surveys are required for all mortgage insurance programs. The date of the survey (or most recent update) must be within 120 days prior to the closing date, except when permitted to use a preexisting survey as outlined herein. Whether prepared for HUD originally or not, a preexisting survey may be submitted in lieu of a new survey when all of the following conditions are met:

1. The title company will accept the prior survey in issuing the policy of title insurance and exclude any title policy survey exception.

2. There has not been a material change in the legal description of the property since the date of the existing survey (e.g. due to a partial release, the addition of property or both).

3. No new easements or recorded agreements affecting the property have been granted since the date of the existing survey (other than blanket easements or other easements that clearly do not conflict with use of project facilities, as determined by HUD on a case by case basis). If new beneficial easements or licenses have been accepted, please consult with OHF about the need for a new survey.

4. No additional improvements (including driveways and parking areas) have been constructed on the property since the date of the existing survey.

5. Copies of the most recently signed and certified as-built survey are supplied (need not be originals).

6. There are no new encroachments either way across the property lines.

7. A signed Borrower’s Survey Certification is submitted to HUD in the form attached hereto.

8. The Standards of Performance listed under item I above are met. OHF can accept surveys dated prior to February 23, 2011 which conform to survey instructions in place at the time the survey was conducted. HUD-92457 (now obsolete) is a good indicator of the rules in place at the time of 2005 ALTA/ACSM requirements.
