1. The coast line of Louisiana as referred to in

paragraphs 1 & 2 of this Court’s decree of December

12, 1960, herein, is as follows:

From Ship Island Lighthouse to Chandeleur

Lighthouse; thence in a curved line following

the general trend of the seaward, high-water

Appendix B

Convention on the Territorial Sea and the Contiguous

Zone, 15 U.S.T. (Pt. 2) 1606, articles 1-13, 24

CONVENTION ON THE TERRITORIAL SEA

AND THE CONTIGUOUS ZONE

PART I: TERRITORIAL SEA

SECTION I. GENERAL

Article 1

1. The sovereignty of a State extends, beyond its

land territory and its internal waters, to a belt of sea

adjacent to its coast, described as the territorial sea.

2. This sovereignty is exercised subject to the

provisions of these articles and to other rules of inter-

national law.

Article 2

The sovereignty of a coastal State extends to the

air space over the territorial sea as well as to its bed

and subsoil.

SECTION II. LIMITS OF THE TERRITORIAL SEA

Article 3

Except where otherwise provided in these articles,

the normal baseline for measuring the breadth of the

territorial sea is the low-water line along the coast as

marked on large-scale charts officially recognized by

the coastal State.

Article 4

1. In localities where the coastline is deeply in-

97

dented and cut into, or if there is a fringe of islands

along the coast in its immediate vicinity, the method

of straight baselines joining appropriate points may

be employed in drawing the baseline from which the

breadth of the territorial sea is measured.

2. The drawing of such baselines must not de-

part to any appreciable extent from the general direc-

tion of the coast, and the sea areas lying within the

lines must be sufficiently closely linked to the land

domain to be subject to the regime of internal waters.

3. Baselines shall not be drawn to and from low-

tide elevations, unless lighthouses or similar installa-

tions which are permanently above sea level have been

built on them.

4. Where the method of straight baselines is ap-

plicable under the provisions of paragraph 1, account

may be taken, in determining particular baselines, of

economic interests peculiar to the region concerned,

the reality and the importance of which are clearly

evidenced by a long usage.

5. The system of straight baselines may not be

applied by a State in such a manner as to cut off from

the high seas the territorial sea of another State.

6. The coastal State must clearly indicate straight

baselines on charts, to which due publicity must be

given.

Article 5

1, Waters on the landward side of the baseline

of the territorial sea form part of the internal waters

of the State.

98

2. Where the establishment of a straight base-

line in accordance with article 4 has the effect of en-

closing as internal waters areas which previously had

bee” considered as part of the territorial sea or of the

high seas, a right of innocent passage, as provided in

articles 14 to 23, shall exist in those waters.

Article 6

The outer limit of the territorial sea is the line

every point of which is at a distance from the nearest

point of the baseline equal to the breadth of the terri-

torial sea.

Article 7

1. This article relates only to bays the coasts of

which belong to a single State.

2. For the purposes of these articles, a bay is a

well-marked indentation whose penetration is in such

proportion to the width of its mouth as to contain land-

locked waters and constitute more than a mere curva-

ture of the coast. An indentation shall not, however,

be regarded as a bay unless its area is as large as, or

larger than, that of the semi-circle whose diameter is

a line drawn across the mouth of that indentation.

3. For the purpose of measurement, the area of

an indentation is that lying between the low-water

mark around the shore of the indentation and a line

joining the low-water marks of its natural entrance

points. Where, because of the presence of islands, an

indentation has more than one mouth, the semi-circle

shall be drawn on a line as long as the sum total of the

lengths of the lines across the different mouths. Is-

re

sx escort vosme shits Satis

mapas EARS SRNR! RES SST Sica

99

lands within an indentation shall be included as if

they were part of the water area of the indentation.

"4. If the distance between the low-water marks

of the natural entrance points of a bay does not ex-

ceed twenty-four miles, a closing line may be drawn

between these two low-water marks, and the waters

enclosed thereby shall be considered as internal waters.

5. Where the distance between the low-water

marks of the natural entrance points of a bay exceeds

twenty-four miles, a straight baseline of twenty-four

miles shall be drawn within the bay in such a manner

as to enclose the maximum area of water that is pos-

sible with a line of that length.

6. The foregoing provisions shall not apply to

so-called “historic” bays, or in any case where the

straight baseline system provided for in article 4 is

applied.

Article 8

For the purpose of delimiting the territorial sea,

the outermost permanent harbour works which form

an integral part of the harbour system shall be re-

garded as forming part of the coast.

Article 9

Roadsteads which are normally used for the

loading, unloading and anchoring of ships, and which

would otherwise be situated wholly or partly outside

the outer limit of the territorial sea, are included in

the territorial sea. The coastal State must clearly de-

marcate such roadsteads and indicate them on charts

100

together with their boundaries, to which due publicity

must be given.

Article 10

1. An island is a naturally formed area of land,

surrounded by water, which is above water at high

tide.

2. The territorial sea of an island is measured in

accordance with the provisions of these articles.

Article 11

1. A low-tide elevation is a naturally formed area

of land which is surrounded by and above water at

low-tide but submerged at high tide. Where a low-

tide elevation is situated wholly or partly at a distance

not exceeding the breadth of the territorial sea from

the mainland or an island, the low-water line on that

elevation may be used as the baseline for measuring

the breadth of the territorial sea.

2. Where a low-tide elevation is wholly situated

at a distance exceeding the breadth of the territorial

sea from the mainland or an island, it has no terri-

torial sea of its own.

Article 12

1. Where the coasts of two States are opposite

or adjacent to each other, neither of the two States is

entitled, failing agreement between them to the con-

trary, to extend its territorial sea beyond the median

line every point of which is equidistant from the

nearest points on the baselines from which the breadth

A 4

101

of the territorial seas of each of the two States is mea-

sured. The provisions of this paragraph shall not

apply, however, where it is necessary by reason of

historic title or other special circumstances to delimit

the territorial seas of the two States in a way which is

at variance with this provision.

2. The line of delimitation between the territorial

seas of the two States lying opposite to each other or

adjacent to each other shall be marked on large-scale

charts officially recognized by the coastal States.

Article 13

If a river flows directly into the sea, the baseline

shall be a straight line across the mouth of the river

between points on the low-tide line of its banks.

PART II: CONTIGUOUS ZONE

Article 24

1. In a zone of the high seas contiguous to its

territorial sea, the coastal State may exercise the con-

trol necessary to:

(a) Prevent infringement of its customs, fiscal,

immigration or sanitary regulations within its terri-

tory or territorial sea ;

(b) Punish infringement of the above regula-

tions committed within its territory or territorial sea.

2. The contiguous zone may not extend beyond

twelve miles from the baseline from which the breadth

of the territorial sea is measured.

3. Where the coasts of two States are opposite or

adjacent to each other, neither of the two States is

entitled, failing agreement between them to the con-

trary, to extend its contiguous zone beyond the median

line every point of which is equidistant from the near-

est points on the baselines from which the breadth of

the territorial seas of the two States is measured.

IN THE

SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES

OCTOBER TERM, 1966

No. 9, Original

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff

v.

STATE OF LOUISIANA, TEXAS, ET AL...

Defendants

MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT OF PROPOSED

SUPPLEMENTAL DECREE

Although proposed decrees have been separately pre-

pared by the respective parties hereto in response to

the direction of the Court in its opinion rendered here-

in on December 4, 1967, agreement has been reached by

said parties regarding the location of the fixed his-

torical gulfward boundary of the State of Texas at

the time Texas became a member of the Union (De-

cember 29, 1845), as reflected by the stiplation between

the United States of America and the State of Texas

and duly executed on behalf of said parties by the legal

representatives thereof, which stipulation has been filed

with the papers of the captioned cause.

The sole point of disagreement between the parties

appears to be whether the aforementioned gulfward

me em

boundary of the State of Texas should remain fixed

under the provisions of the Submerged Lands Act and

the opinion of this Honorable Court, which is the po-

sition of the State of Texas, or whether, under the

provisions of the Submerged Lands Act, the gulfward

boundary of the State of Texas is not necessarily fixed

but becomes ambulatory anytime the coast line of Tex-

as recedes from the coast line as it existed in 1845,

which is the position of the United States.

The State of Texas believes that the position of the

United States flies in the face of the majority opinion

of the Court and is categorically opposed to the intent

and overt meaning of the Submerged Lands Act.

As determined by the Court, Texas was given ‘‘that

amount of submerged land it owned when it entered

the Union’? (majority opinion, page 5). Therefore,

**the Congressional grant to Texas of nine (3) marine

leagues of submerged land is measured by the historic

State boundaries ‘as they existed’ in 1845 when Texas

was admitted to the Union’’ (majority opinion, page

6).

In reaching its decision the Court looked to the def-

inition of the term, ‘‘boundaries,’’ found in Section

2(b) of the Submerged Lands Act passed on May 22,

1953, the relevant portion of which is as foilows:

“The term ‘boundaries’ includes the seaward

boundaries of a state or its boundaries in the Gulf

of Mexico . .. as they existed at the time such

State became a member of the Union... .”’

Thus, the aforementioned phrase, ‘‘ boundaries in the

Gulf of Mexico ... as they existed,’’ to which the

majority turned for reasoning, would appear to mean

simply ‘‘as a line or seaward limit existed in 1845,”’

sisi Ma Ses:

sOpPY BOUND CLOSE IN CENTER

Such an interpretation of the majority opinion seems

to be reflected in the dissent (page 2) wherein Mr. Jus-

tice Harlan refers to the majority’s ‘‘assumption that

the statutory term ‘as it existed’ was intended to freeze

Texas’ seaward boundary ... as of 1845... .”

Notwithstanding the foregoing language taken from

the majority opinion and the aforementioned refer-

ence to the dissent’s interpretation thereof, the United

States presently takes the position that the State of

Texas cannot claim three marine leagues of submerged

land ‘‘measured by the historic State boundaries ‘as

they existed’ in 1845 when Texas was admitted to the

Union’’ because the Texas coast line has generally re-

ceded subsequent to 1845, as evidenced by a joint Fed-

eral-State project. To maintain such a position, the

United States looks to additional language in Section

2(b) of the Submerged Lands Act and, this State be-

lieves, falls inte either or both errors of (1) reading

the language out of context or (2) supplying an addi-

tional word which never appears in Section 2(b) of

the Act. The particular language upon which the

United States bases its position is merely as follows:

‘* but in no event shall the term ‘boundaries’

... be interpreted as extending from the coast line

more than... three marine leagues into the Gulf

of Mexico.’’

The United States would add the word ‘‘present”’ in

front of ‘‘coast line’? to make this explanatory lan-

guage read: ‘*... as extending from the present coast

line,’? which would in fact result in a denial to the

State of Texas of its full three marine leagues of sub-

merged land as measured by the historic State bound-

aries as they existed in 1845 when Texas was admitted

oe | en

eg das NS

La eh

into the Union simply because the Texas coast line

has receded subsequent to 1845.

Not only would the word ‘‘present’’ have to be so

added in order to arrive at such a meaning, but the

foregoing explanatory language would have to be read

completely out of context, since the language does in

fact appear as an integral part of the definition of a

state’s boundaries as being the boundaries which ex-

isted ‘‘at the time such State became a member of the

Union, or as heretofore approved by the Congress.”’

Moreover, the inequity of the United States’ position

is readily apparent when considering the result of a

coast line advancing into the Gulf since 1845, by virtue

of either accretion or reliction, or a receding coast line

caused by erosion along the Texas coast line subsequent

to 1845. If, through accretion or reliction along the

coast line of Texas subsequent to 1845, three marine

leagues from the present coast line now reaches gulf-

yard bevond the three leagues distance from the his-

toric coast line of 1845, the seaward boundary of Texas

would still remain three marine leagues from the his-

toric coast line. This, the State of Texas believes, is

within the meaning of the majority opinion. If, how-

ever, according to the United States’ position, where

changes subsequent to 1845 result in erosion along the

Texas coast line, as has apparently occurred, Texas

ean no longer claim its historie boundary of 1845, but

must give up the area beyond three marine leagues

from the present coast line. Therefore, not only would

the State of Texas gain nothing from accretion or re-

liction along its coast line subsequent to 1845, but it

would also lose, under the United States’ contention, a

portion of its historic tidelands in the event of subse-

quent erosion. This, the State of Texas believes, is not

the meaning of the majority opinion of the Court,

which, this State submits, clearly sets the seaward

boundary of Texas as a stable line measured by his-

toric conditions at the time Texas joined the Union.

Also, the confusing consequences of the United

States’ position are readily apparent when considering

the result of a coast line suffering from erosion subse-

quent to 1845, which, as aforesaid, has apparently tak-

en place along the Texas coast. According to the con-

tention of the United States, whenever the ever-chang-

ing coast line lies inland from the historic coast line

of 1845, the seaward boundary of Texas becomes am-

bulatory following the changes that occur in the coast

eee eee ee ee eee eh Ch Ch Cr mr rCOrCemrmrrerceorreeeorrerorrrrerc eer rer

line itself, which the State of Texas believes, is clearly

a situation the majority of the Court was undertaking

to avuid and which, Texas further believes, is not with-

in the meaning of the Submerged Lands Act.

Furthermore, such a situation would work havoc

with any kind of orderly mineral development along

the periphery of the Texas seaward boundary because

lessees would never know with whom they should deal.

Title to royalty interests under leased properties might

in fact change hands between the United States and

Texas time and time again during the life of a single

lease both before and after commencement of produc-

tion. It is not difficult to foresee an unending chain of

litigation between the United States and Texas involv-

ing title to oil and gas produced under properties sub-

ject to innumerable changes in ownership. The myriad

of questions and problems resulting from such a fluid

situation is unforeseeable.

A thorough reading of the Submerged Lands Act,

~r

RG ers SBialoslpiiilodee CaS Sy RN TA Tee AIS

py OT Sd

especially the defining Sections 2(b) and 2(c), appears

to the State of Texas to clearly reflect that the defini-

tions of the term ‘‘boundaries’’ and ‘‘coast lines’’ in

no way limit a State’s seaward boundary to less than

three marine leagues from shore if seaward boundaries

of the state extended three marine leagues at the time

such state became a member of the Union.

A thorough reading of the majority opinion of the

Court evidences the same conclusion, as reflected by

the following quotations from the opinion:

‘‘No new State boundary is being created, but a

State which qualifies simply is given the same area

it had when it entered the Union.’’ (emphasis

added) (majority opinion, page 5)

‘¢ .. Texas has simply been given that amount of

submerged land it owned when it entered the

Union.”’ (majority opinion, page 5)

‘‘Thus, we hold today that the congressional grant

to Texas of nine (3) marine leagues of submerged

land is measured by the historical state bound-

aries ‘as they existed’ in 1845 when Texas was

admitted to the Union.’’ (majority opinion page

6)

The State of Texas therefore submits that the posi-

tion of the United States is untenable and in direct

conflict with the majority opinion of the Court and

the language of the Submerged Lands Act, by virtue

of which the State of Texas says that the seaward

boundary of Texas is and will forever be ‘‘as it existed”

at the time Texas became a member of the Union.

The State of Texas further submits that the afore-

said conflict is of such significance that oral argument

is desirable and therefore respectfully requests a hear-
