THE REQUEST IS RECEIVED AND ACTED UPON

The BLM state office receives the request which triggers some internal actions, including:

  • Research of official public land records
  • Research of other Federal agencies, state and local governments, and various non-governmental sources
  • Evaluation of the information obtained to extract what is pertinent to the survey and using that information to prepare a plan of survey

This step initiates the gathering and evaluation of evidence portion of the survey which continues until the survey is complete.
