Should I submit a map with my EOI if it is for unsurveyed land or has been assigned an acquisition tract number?
Yes. A map should be submitted if the lands have not been surveyed under the rectangular system. The legal land description must be described in the offer as it appears in the deed or other document by which the U.S. acquired title to the minerals. In other words, they must be described by either metes and bounds or an acquisition tract number. Three copies of a map which clearly shows the desired lands applied for, and its location with respect to the administrative unit or project in which they are a part of, must also be provided.
