Declining Deposit Account
The Declining Deposit Account (DDA) is established by customers to expedite payment proceedures. When records are requested from the Information Access Center (IAC) or the Survey Records Section, the customer's account is debited. BLM Field or District Offices do not maintain DDA accounts; this is only handled at the BLM State Office.
New DDA Accounts require a minimum deposit of $25.00, name, address, phone number, and a statement of who is allowed to use the account. Changes to account information must be submitted in writing to the BLM California State Office at 2800 Cottage Way, Suite W-1623, Sacramento, CA 95825.
Contact a customer representative at (916) 978-4400, for mining claim records, title plats, historical indexes, patent records, paper copies, maps, and serial register pages.
Contact the Survey Records Representative at (916) 978-4330, for survey plats and field notes.
