1. A person desiring to acquire title to any individual item or real property which has escheated to the State must proceed by petition to the Director of the State Department of Conservation and Natural Resources on forms obtainable at the office of the Director and in the manner described in NRS 154.150 to 154.180 , inclusive. 2. A petition for unimproved real property outside of approved townsites may not be accepted for a parcel of land less than the smallest legal subdivision (40 acres) unless the area in its entirety is less than 40 acres. In such a case, that portion of the subdivision must be described and disposed of on one petition unless, in the discretion of the Director of the State Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, it is found that the remaining portion could be disposed of within a reasonable length of time, and would not become an isolated tract. The Director may then accept an application for a portion of the tract, if a survey is made and a plat submitted on tracing cloth, 24 inches by 32 inches, on which is set forth an accurate description of the property by metes and bounds, with at least one corner of the property tied to a point on the United States public land surveys.
