BLM plats

We will be submitting the USPLSS plats to BLM for posting on their website sometime this fall.
Next we hope to have the Field Notes also available as PDF files.
Yes, I know this all takes time and in addition to being short staffed, yet we are trying to spend a little time here and there so we can make this eventually available to the public via the internet.

BTW - the government patents are at the Santa Clara County Archives facility and are available to the public there.
