Open the surface source dwg in question, try removing the Data Shortcut for the surface in Data Shortcuts list.
Recreate the shortcut & test.
If you built a surface, created references, went to the source surface dwg, deleted the surface for edits and created a new one with the same name you will lose all shortcuts since the new surface does not have the same object handle as the original.
If this is the case you may be able to fix it in the datashortcut editor. In the editor find the surface and change Handle or Name to Name only and try again.

Try auditing the drawing containing the original surface. If it has been correputed is will not reference correctly.

John, I closed CAD session, and opened the Data Shortcut editor. I changed to "Name only", and opened the drawing in question. I am still getting the same error message when I synchronize.

I was trying to provide some fair warning for the future... It looks like the link is busted or the source file has issues. Do as Jay and Doni recommended, recover or audit the source file. If that doesn't work try to recreate the data shortcut (knowing you will lose Civil 3D labels so make a copy to test first).

I think we have a circular reference.
Just a wild guess but Don may have meant to link this thread starring JMayo
I ran accross this earlier when looking at it.

Doni,
I'm guessing you meant to link us to another post and not back to this one. No?
No -- I just thought that might be friendlier than saying "go back up and read Jay's post". 🙂
