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.
