Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the boundary line of land lying within the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta (as defined in Section 12220 of the Water Code) bordering upon tidal waters or upon a navigable stream is, for the purpose of determining boundary location, conclusively presumed to be located at the ordinary high-water mark when such land borders on tidal lands not validly patented into private ownership and at the low-water mark when such land borders upon a navigable stream where there is no tide or where such lands consist of tidelands validly patented into private ownership, as such high- or low-water mark exists upon the effective date of this section and from time to time thereafter where, for a period of not less than 30 years continuously, prior to the effective date of this section, the following facts exist:

(a) The land including any accretion thereto has been occupied openly and notoriously by persons claiming title thereto or their predecessors. Land shall be deemed occupied for the purpose of this section when protected by a substantial enclosure; or when usually cultivated; or when improvements have been constructed thereon by the persons claiming such title or their predecessors, including, in the case of improvements located waterward of the landward toe of a levee, that land surrounding such improvements as is incidental to the usual and reasonable use of the improvements.

(b) Taxes (state, county or municipal) have been levied and assessed during such period on such land including any accretion thereto and such persons or their predecessors have paid all such taxes during such period. The requirements of this subparagraph shall be deemed to have been met during any period when the owner or claimant to such land was exempt from ad valorem taxation.

(c) The persons claiming title or their predecessors have based their claim upon a deed or map, or both, describing or depicting the land including any accretion thereto, which deed or map has been recorded in the office of the recorder of the county in which the land is situated.

Nothing in this section shall be construed as vesting in an adjacent or contiguous landowner title to any lands which have been artificially filled by the landowner or his predecessors or any public agency or which have attached to his lands as a result of an avulsive change in the shoreline or as the result of an avulsive change in the course of, or an artifical rechannelization of, any river or stream, or divesting such landowner of any title which he may have to any lands which have been artificially dredged by the landowner or his predecessors or any public agency or which have detached from his land as a result of an avulsive change in the shoreline or as the result of an avulsive change in the course of, or an artifical rechannelization of, any river or stream.
Cal. HSC § 25269 — California Code / Code hsc / Division 20 / Chapter 6.66 / Section 25269
Section 25269
Status: in_force

The Legislature hereby finds and declares all of the following:

(a)  To enhance cooperation between the department and the regulated community, and to reduce the state’s costs associated with the oversight of cleanup efforts, the costs of the associated cost recovery program and the corresponding costs to the responsible parties involved, the oversight program should be administered in an efficient, responsible, and accountable manner.

(b)  According to information provided to the Legislature, the department has collected more than seventy-one million dollars ($71,000,000) since the cost recovery effort was begun in the early 1980s and there is approximately seventy million dollars ($70,000,000) to eighty million dollars ($80,000,000) in outstanding receivables for disputed site cleanup oversight costs. The information provided to the Legislature indicates that potentially responsible parties have complained that the department’s oversight costs have been unpredictable, unsubstantiated, and exceedingly high.

(c)  Disputes with potentially responsible parties over the reasonableness of oversight costs have been a major factor in the difficulty that the department has experienced in conducting cost recovery. Disputes of that kind substantially increase the cost of state operations and the cost of doing business for the private sector, leading to extended negotiations and litigation. The redirection of resources by both parties in attempting to resolve those differences most likely inhibit cleanup efforts and affect the ability of the parties to work together cooperatively, thereby exacerbating the costs associated with the cleanups. Disputes would be reduced by clarifying current law by providing definitions of direct and indirect oversight costs. Further, these high costs affect the competitiveness of California businesses in national and global business environments.
