§ 30-311. Same—Additional determinations.  


Latest version.
  • Lines which determine the landward extent of water may be ambulatory, not static, and may change through time by the natural or man-induced occurrence of accretions, relictions and avulsions. Therefore, the prior determination of a normal high water elevation for a particular water body at a particular time shall not preclude later determinations of the then-existing normal high water elevation. The normal high water elevation shall have no significance with respect to sovereign ownership, or with respect to establishing vertical control or stormwater frequency elevations.
