made on the June 28, 2021, plats of survey.

a notice of protest in time for it to be received in the BLM Montana
State Office no later than April 8, 2022.
ADDRESSES: A copy of the plats may be obtained from the Public Room at

deafblind, hard of hearing, or have a speech disability may dial 711

for contacting Mr. Alexander. Individuals outside the United States
should use the relay services offered within their country to make

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The survey was executed at the request of
the Field Manager, Miles City Field Office, Miles City, Montana and was
necessary to exclude a privately owned cemetery from the land
description of a proposed BLM land acquisition known as the Lower
Musselshell River Acquisition Project. The BLM recorded the plats of
survey in the Garfield County Courthouse on June 28, 2021, to create
the new land descriptions for the title opinion of the proposed
acquisition. After the plats were filed and recorded, the BLM and the
private landowner terminated the entire proposed land acquisition. Even
though the proposed land acquisition was terminated, this notice is
intended to provide the public with an opportunity to protest the BLM's
corner determinations and land descriptions as shown on the plats of
survey.
The lands surveyed are:
Principal Meridian, Montana
T. 18 N., R. 30 E.
Sec. 18.
A person or party who wishes to protest the filed plats of survey
identified earlier must file a written notice of protest with the BLM
Chief Cadastral Surveyor for Montana at the address listed in the
ADDRESSES section of this notice. The notice of protest must identify
the plat(s) of survey that the person or party wishes to protest. The
notice of protest must be received in the BLM Montana State Office no
later than the date described in the DATES section of this notice; If
received after regular business hours, a notice of protest will be
considered filed the next business day. A written statement of reasons
in support of the protest, if not filed with the notice of protest,
must be filed with the BLM Chief Cadastral Surveyor for Montana within
30 calendar days after the notice of protest is received.
Upon receipt of a timely protest, and after a review of the
protest, the Authorized Officer will issue a decision either dismissing
or otherwise resolving the protest.
If a notice of protest is received after the date described in the
DATES section of this notice and the 10-calendar-day grace period
provided in 43 CFR 4.401(a), the notice of protest will be untimely,
may not be considered, and may be dismissed.
Before including your address, phone number, email address, or
other personal identifying information in a notice of protest or
statement of reasons, you should be aware that the documents you
submit--including your personal identifying information--may be made
publicly available in their entirety at any time. While you can ask us
to withhold your personal identifying information from public review,
we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.
