NSW Land Registry Services (NSW LRS) has enhanced ePlan, the electronic plan lodgment and validation system, to return amended plans to surveyors after the amendment has been finalised.
Providing the amended plan to surveyors avoids the need for surveyors to manually reconcile their own copies of the plan to match the agreed, registered amendments.
Amended plans are now available to all ePlan users and enables surveyors to receive an electronic copy of the final amended plan for their records.
ePlan users are notified by email when amended plans are made available and can access amended plans alongside the existing registered plan feature in the My Documents section of their NSW LRS Online Portal account.
Users are encouraged to download and save these images when they become available, as they are removed from accounts after 14 days if they have not been viewed or downloaded. Plan images remain available from authorised Information Brokers after this time.
Plan amendment occurs after a plan has been registered to correct an error or omission that affects the registered plan. Amendments may make minor corrections, such as the alteration of survey information, or more substantial corrections, such as those effecting lot boundaries or areas.
Further information on plan amendment is available in the Registrar General’s Guidelines at: rg-guidelines.nswlrs.com.au/deposited_plans/amendment
