Maximum. The furthest point in E"Y is two weeks away from Yerushalayim, as per edei hachodesh.  Two weeks to tell them (if the fax is not working) and two weeks for them to come.

Data point:  the Rambam holds that you do leave him there until the medida is done.  Rav Chaim Kanievsky in Nachal Eisan brings someone who suggests that the Rambam is only when the distance is not too long, but he (RCK) rejects that.

The Tosefta and Yerushalmi say bury, then measure from the (marked) place.
