Sec. 923.33  Excluded lands.



    (a) The boundary of a State's coastal zone must exclude lands owned, 

leased, held in trust or whose use is otherwise by law subject solely to 

the discretion of the Federal Government, its officers or agents. To 

meet this requirement, the program must describe, list or map lands or 

types of lands owned, leased, held in trust or otherwise used solely by 

Federal agencies.

    (b) The exclusion of Federal lands does not remove Federal agencies 

from the obligation of complying with the consistency provisions of 

section 307 of the Act when Federal actions on these excluded lands have 

spillover impacts that affect any land or water use or natural resource 

of the coastal zone within the purview of a state's management program. 

In excluding Federal lands from a State's coastal zone for the purposes 

of this Act, a State does not impair any rights or authorities that it 

may have over Federal lands that exist separate from this program.
