What does the survey form Bounce and Bypass do?

• A. Used to determine contamination boundaries
• B. Used to map terrain elevation
• C. Used to locate specific features
• D. Used to locate general boundaries

Answer: (D)

Understanding the difference between general versus precise boundary delineation in survey work. Bounce and Bypass is used to quickly establish the broad outer limits of an area, giving you the general boundaries needed for initial layout and planning without diving into exact contours or detailed features. It’s not the method you’d use to fix precise elevations, locate specific features, or mark contamination boundaries, all of which require more targeted, exact surveying approaches. So the form is best described as locating general boundaries.
