North Dakota Code 15-04-09 – Notice of leasing – Publication – Posting
Each year at such time as in its judgment is for the best interests of the state, the board of university and school lands shall advertise and offer for lease the lands to be leased. All lands to be leased or offered for lease within the respective counties must be advertised for lease by the board by publication once each week for a period of three weeks prior to the day of leasing in the official county newspaper where said land is situated and in such other newspapers as the board deems appropriate. If, in the opinion of the board, the land that will be leased in any county will not be sufficient to warrant the expense of advertisement in a newspaper by description of each tract or parcel, the notice may be given by general advertisement.
