quote “BLM is categorically not expanding Federal holdings along the Red River”

the KEY words there ... “not expanding”

the BLM believes they already have ownership of the land, and thus are “not expanding” the amount of land they are taking.

This is what happens when lawyers run out government.

Therefore, I would like to make an additional inquiry:

6. Please confirm that BLM does not take the position that it has rights to ownership or control of any of the 90,000 acres of land along the Red River that are at the center of this controversy or similarly situated land. If it claims any such rights, please identify with specificity the acreage, location and legal basis for claiming those rights.
