This law says the Sacramento River Barge Canal in West Sacramento does not count as navigable water, but only for the purpose of deciding which bridges over it need federal approval. It covers the stretch from the Port of Sacramento east to near the William G. Stone Lock.

For deciding which bridges need federal review and approval, the Sacramento River Barge Canal — which connects the Sacramento Deep Water Ship Channel to the Sacramento River in West Sacramento, Yolo County, California — is declared not to be navigable waters of the United States under the General Bridge Act of 1946. This applies to the stretch from the eastern boundary of the Port of Sacramento to a point 1,200 feet east of the William G. Stone Lock.
