The tortoise wasn't abandoned in the vacant lot in the boonies, it wandered out of its yard and motated to that vacant lot. You place a "found" ad in the classified section of the local newspaper. You put up fliers on utility poles.
I've tried to find it, but the search came up empty: we had someone in Hawaii post a picture here on the forum not too long ago of a female sulcata that was red like your found tortoise because of the dirt where she lived. It looked pretty much like the same tortoise. Can anyone find that picture for us?
