Everyone,</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=082252218-30112010><FONT face=Arial>I was asked by the Corey
Plank at BLM to see how each county determines its county boundary. As many of
you know the BLM is responsible for creating a boundary for the State of Oregon
and its counties. They're currently using the legal descriptions, along with
LiDAR and other remote sensing and GIS sources.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=082252218-30112010><FONT face=Arial>He has been asked by
several counties if he has coordinated his effort with those here at ORMAP. I
told him that the county boundaries that many of you are using for ORMAP
are based on the tax lots or taxing boundaries which are used for
"assessment purposes only." And that the agreements that we (ORMAP)
have are between the county assessor's offices (and maybe more?). Now comes
the big question, what is everyone using for their "official" boundary for your
entire county GIS effort? Are you using the county boundaries created by your
tax lot remapping efforts or is there something else?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=082252218-30112010><FONT face=Arial>The BLM is trying to get
the boundaries defined correctly and to everyone
satisfaction.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
