Court upholds federal offshore oil rights ruling
The Supreme Court affirmed federal control of offshore oil reserves up to 100 miles off the coast, rejecting state claims based on colonial charters. The decision, with Justice Douglas not participating, sets ownership up to three miles per earlier acts but extends federal tenure to almost 200,000 square miles, enabling Interior to proceed with leasing. Governors Longley and Thomson reacted with mixed disappointment and approval while planning faster private development.
