For notices of intent to locate (NOITL) mining claims or tunnel sites under the Stock Raising Homestead Act (SRHA), the BLM will not accept a NOITL unless you pay the full processing fee as required in 43 CFR 3830.21. If your NOITL is received with insufficient funds, the BLM will return the NOITL to you unrecorded. See subparts 3831, 3838, and 3839 of this chapter for information regarding the Stock Raising Homestead Act and NOITLs.
