Form No. 587 - Federal Land Description

The Form No. 587 is used to identify those project boundary maps associated with federal lands. There are two versions of the form to account for the two different ways land is surveyed in the United States, the Public Land States and the Non-Public Land States. Completed forms must be included in applications for preliminary permits with a copy sent to the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) state office where the project is located. Copies are also sent to BLM after license issuance.
