,This data was created to depict portions of state-owned Sovereign Lands that are under the jurisdiction of the California State Lands Commission. Data coverage is currently limited to reaches 1A, 4A and 4B1 of the San Joaquin River.,The California State Lands Commission (CSLC) was created by the California Legislature in 1938 and given the authority and responsibility to manage certain public lands within the state. The public lands under the Commission’s jurisdiction are of two distinct types—sovereign lands acquired upon California’s admission into the Union in 1850; and certain federally granted lands including school lands, and swamp and overflowed lands. For purposes of this GIS data, sovereign lands are considered to be further divided into two general categories—fixed-boundary sovereign lands and ambulatory-boundary sovereign lands.,The following lands are included in this data:,· Portions of the ambulatory-boundary for state sovereign lands at a specific point in time, for portions of the San Joaquin River.,NOT INCLUDED IN THIS DATA:,· School lands: These are what remains of nearly 5.5 million acres throughout the state originally granted to California by Congress in 1853 to benefit public education.,· Fixed-boundary sovereign lands: These are sovereign, public trust lands having fixed boundaries as the result of land exchanges, boundary line agreements or court orders.,· Swamps and overflowed lands: These are what remain of federal lands granted to California by Congress in 1850 to encourage reclamation and development of agricultural lands.,ALSO NOT INCLUDED IN THIS DATA: Ownership details within the U.S. Government meanders of Owens Lake.,THIS DATA SUPERSEDES all previously published GIS information with respect to the above described state-owned lands under the jurisdiction of the CSLC.,

The California State Lands Commission (CSLC) may issue leases or permits on state lands under its jurisdiction. Additional information regarding CSLC leasing can be found at: https://www.slc.ca.gov/leases-permits/. This is a point feature dataset indicating the approximate locations, often represented by a center point, of the general lease area of lands leased by the CSLC on state sovereign lands and school lands, including coastal marine areas, bays, rivers, and lakes. This dataset is to be considered incomplete as new leases are being entered into the CSLC database, and existing leases are modified or terminated, on an ongoing basis. Many marine areas, bays, rivers, and lakes are not under the leasing jurisdiction of the CSLC because they have been legislatively granted in trust to other government entities. Additionally, some leases are not shown at all for a variety of reasons. Many point features in this dataset provide links to maps and/or land descriptions used in the CSLC lease approval process. These documents are hosted on the CSLC archives website at https://www.slc.ca.gov/archives/. In some cases, these documents provide reliable, current lease boundary information, while in other cases, additional information is necessary to properly define lease boundaries. Additionally, revisions to lease boundaries may have occurred subsequent to CSLC approval, as in the case of as-built locations that differ from originally approved alignments. Further, the boundary of some leases may be the mean high tide line, which in a state of nature is both ambulatory, and in the absence of a survey conducted by a licensed land surveyor, not readily locatable.,

Developed exclusively for Central Valley Flood Protection Plan (CVFPP) work. Specifically, this area has been delineated in an effort to define the analysis area for environmental analyses of various kinds. Once finalized, a two-mile buffer will be added and form the basis of the potential environmental impacts delineation for CEQA work. Systemwide Planning Area includes lands subject to flooding under the current facilities and operation of the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Flood Management System CWC§ 9611, CWC§ 9641(d, e) (completely contains the State Plan of Flood Control (SPFC) Planning Area). The CVFPP describes facilities and flood management problems in this area and proposes solutions, while not extending the State's responsibility (CWC§ 9603(b)). This feature class represents the Systemwide Planning Area. It is one of the three CVFPP Planning Areas. It is comprised of the following layers:,

,Wetlands in California are protected by several federal and state laws, regulations, and policies. This layer was extracted from the broader vegetation raster from the CA Nature project which was recently enhanced to include a more comprehensive definition of wetland. This wetlands dataset is used as an exclusion as part of the biological planning priorities in the CEC 2023 Land-Use Screens.,This layer is featured in the CEC 2023 Land-Use Screens for Electric System Planning data viewer.,For more information about this layer and its use in electric system planning, please refer to the Land Use Screens Staff Report in the CEC Energy Planning Library.,
