§1213. Water boundaries
For the purposes of this chapter, the State Planning Office is directed to draw the water boundaries of the 8 coastal counties in order to determine in which registry of deeds the island shall be registered. These lines shall be drawn in accordance with the corporate charters of the counties as amended. In instances in which the charter does not clearly specify the seaward boundaries of the counties, the boundaries shall be drawn in accordance with state law and the principles contained in the International Convention for the Contiguous and Territorial Sea in determining seaward boundaries between adjacent nation states. [1973, c. 616, §1 (NEW).]
