Sec. 1863.5-1  Evidence of title.

    Evidence of title, when required by the regulations, must be 
submitted in such form and by such abstracter or company as may be 
satisfactory to the Bureau of Land Management. A policy of title 
insurance, or a certificate of title, may be accepted in lieu of an 
abstract, in proper cases, when issued by a title company. A policy of 
title insurance when furnished must be free from conditions and 
stipulations not acceptable to the Department of the Interior. A 
certificate of title will be accepted only where the certificate is made 
to the Government, or expressly for its benefit and where the interests 
of the Government will be sufficiently protected thereby.
