150.680 Concurrent criminal jurisdiction of portions of Trigg and Lyon
Counties within boundaries of Land Between the Lakes ceded to United
States.
Kentucky cedes to the United States criminal jurisdiction concurrent with that of
Kentucky, solely for the purposes of Section 13 of Title 18 of the United States Code
and enforcement proceedings pursuant thereto, over those portions of Trigg and
Lyon Counties that lie within the boundaries of the Kentucky portion of Land
Between the Lakes and are more specifically described as follows:
(1) Beginning at a point in the Tennessee River at Tennessee River mile 49.2,
such being the point of separation between the Kentucky-Tennessee state line
and the Trigg County-Calloway County line; thence with the Trigg
County-Calloway County line as it meanders northward with the river for a
distance of approximately 5.5 miles to a point where the Marshall
County-Calloway County line intersects the Trigg County line; thence with the
Trigg County-Marshall County line and the river as they meander northward
approximately 9 miles to a point where the Trigg County-Lyon County line
intersects the Marshall County line; thence with the Lyon County-Marshall
County line in a northerly direction to a point in said county line opposite
Tennessee River mile 25.7; thence leaving the Lyon County-Marshall County
line and running N. 53 deg. 30 min. E. approximately 3,795 feet to U.S. TVA
Monument 2CN-6 in the 378-foot contour on the east shore of Kentucky Lake;
thence with the 378-foot contour as it meanders northerly to the southwest end
of the canal connecting Kentucky Lake and Lake Barkley; thence continuing
with the 378-foot contour as it meanders along the southeast shore of the canal
in a northeasterly direction to the northeast end of the canal; thence continuing
with the 378-foot contour as it meanders eastward and southward to a point
where the 378-foot contour intersects the Kentucky-Tennessee state line, said
point being located on the west shore of Lake Barkley opposite Cumberland
River mile 74.6; thence with the Kentucky-Tennessee state line in a westerly
direction for a distance of approximately 8.6 miles to the point of beginning.
The combined distance of the calls in the foregoing description that follow the
meandering of the 378-foot contour from U.S. TVA Monument 2CN-6 to the
Kentucky-Tennessee state line on the west shore of Lake Barkley is
approximately 260 miles.
(2) Nothing in this section shall be construed as ceding to the United States any
existing legislative or other regulatory jurisdiction of the Commonwealth of
Kentucky.
