“State waters” means the zone as measured from the mean high tide line to three nautical miles offshore, as set forth by the Submerged Lands Act (43 U.S.C. Sec. 1311) in which the United States released to adjacent coastal states title, ownership, and the right to manage natural resources from the mean high tide line seaward to three miles.
(Added by Stats. 1989, Ch. 1215, Sec. 1.)
