The 1953 Submerged Lands Act defined a three mile belt for coastal states and allowed Texas and Florida wider claims. The Interior Department offered 1,271,000 acres off Louisiana for lease with bids opened October 13.

Offshore land bids revised under continental shelf dispute
Louisiana paused bids on lands up to 30 miles offshore after talks and a September 28 compromise. The state withdrew Teasey and the Interior Department dropped 19 of 199 offered tracts affecting a belt from three to twelve miles offshore. The U S claims exclusive mineral rights to the continental shelf dating to President Truman’s proclamation and aims for a favorable UN General Assembly Legal Committee ruling.
