16 U.S.C. § 430f–4Jurisdiction of lands

submitted 68 years ago by Pub. L. 85-406 to r/title-16-CONSERVATION · 43 words · no verdicts yet

in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

Once the land conveyances described in the earlier sections are completed, the federal government's legal authority over that land ends. Legal authority over that land then belongs to the State of Tennessee.

This section deals with legal jurisdiction — which government has authority over the land. Tennessee had earlier given the United States authority ("ceded jurisdiction") over the park lands. Once the land conveyances authorized in the earlier sections are delivered and accepted, that federal jurisdiction over the conveyed land stops. Jurisdiction over that land then goes to, and stays with, the State of Tennessee.

Upon the delivery and acceptance of the conveyance herein authorized, any jurisdiction heretofore ceded to the United States by the State of Tennessee over the lands conveyed shall thereby cease and determine and shall thereafter vest and be in the State of Tennessee.
