Plats to Be Filed for Land Transfer
The Bureau of Land Management will officially file plats of survey related to land transfers under the Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe Reservation Restoration Act on August 5, 2026, unless protests are received. A person or party must file a written notice of protest within 30 calendar days from the date of this publication to the State Director, BLM Eastern States, 5275 Leesburg Pike, Suite 102-A, Falls Church, VA 22041; if a protest is received before filing, the filing will be stayed while the protest is considered.
Privacy Risk for Protest Filers
If you file a protest or a statement of reasons, your entire protest — including your address, phone number, email, or other personally identifiable information — may be made publicly available. You can ask the agency to withhold your personal information, but the agency says it cannot guarantee it will be able to do so.
Plats Available to Public
Copies of the described plats of survey will be placed in the BLM open files and will be available to the public as a matter of information. The plats being filed relate to specific dependent resurveys, subdivisions, and partition lines in Cass County, Minnesota, accepted on various dates in 2024 and 2025.
