    A person or party who wishes to protest one or more plats of survey 
identified above must file a written notice of protest with the State 
Director for the BLM in Alaska. The protest may be filed by mailing to 
BLM State Director, Alaska State Office, Bureau of Land Management, 222 
W. 7th Avenue, Anchorage, AK 99513 or by delivering it in person to BLM 
Alaska Public Information Center, Fitzgerald Federal Building, 222 W. 
7th Avenue, Anchorage, Alaska. The notice of protest must identify the 
plat(s) of survey that the person or party wishes to protest. You must 
file the notice of protest before the scheduled date of official filing 
for the plat(s) of survey being protested. The BLM will not consider 
any notice of protest filed after the scheduled date of official 
filing. A notice of protest is considered filed on the date it is 
received by the State Director for the BLM in Alaska during regular 
business hours; 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 a protest, if not filed with the 
notice of protest, must be filed with the State Director for the BLM in 
Alaska within 30 calendar days after the notice of protest is filed.
    If a notice of protest against a plat of survey is received prior 
to the scheduled date of official filing, the official filing of the 
plat of survey identified in the notice of protest will be stayed 
pending consideration of the protest. A plat of survey will not be 
officially filed until the dismissal or resolution of all protests of 
the plat.
    Before including your address, phone number, email address, or 
other personally identifiable information in a notice of protest or 
statement of reasons, you should be aware that the documents you 
submit, including your personally identifiable information, may be made 
publicly available in their entirety at any time. While you can ask the 
BLM to withhold your personally identifiable information from public 
review, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.
