By Robert E. Lee
(For the N. C. Bar Association)
NAVIGABLE WATERS
Who owns the land beneath a
navigable stream ?
In most states, the title to the
soil under navigable waters is
considered as being in the state.
It is regarded as held in trust for
the people of the state for the
public purposes for which it is
adopted.
This does not mean, however,
that the Federal government can
not by the exercise of its consti
tutional powers control and regu
late navigable waters. In respect
to the control of navigable waters,
the Federal government has rights
that are paramount to the state.
A body of water is navigable if
it is of such size and character
that it can be used regularly for
the purpose of transportation and
commerce.
If a stream or other body of
water is non-navigable, there may
be a private ownership of the soil
beneath the water.
A deed of land, bounded in terms
by a river or creek not navigable,
carries the land to the grantee to
the middle or thread of the stream.
Who owns the actual water in a
river or other natural stream ?
Water flowing in a natural
stream is not the subject of pri
vate ownership.
One may own the land on both
sides of a stream, including in the
case of a non-navigable stream all
of the soil over which the water
of the stream flows, but he does
not have an absolute ownership in
the waters of such stream.
One who owns land adjoining a
natural stream may make a reas
onable use of the water, but he
cannot use all of the water of the
stream to the exclusion of other
riparian owners.
The control of waters in run
ning streams, lakes, and ponds re
sides in the state in its soverign
capacity as representative of and
for the benefit of the people in
common.
As soon as an individual ab
stracts water from a stream and
takes it into his possession, by
placing it in a reservoir or other
receptacle, or by introducing it
into a pipe for the purpose of
storage or transmission, it becomes
his property, and so remains un
til he abandons it or allows it to
escape from his possession.
How close to a navigable stream
or other public waters does the
land of an abutting landowner ex
tend?
In most states the ownership of
land abutting on public waters ex
tends to the ordinary high water
mark.
Who owns the shores of the
ocean?
The area between the ordinary
high tide and the ordinary low
tide of an ocean is called the
shore. It is that part of the beach
which is alternately covered with
water and left dry by the flux
and reflux of tides. It is ordi
narily considered that the title to
the shore is held by the state in
trust for the people.
When land borders upon the
ocean or an arm thereof, the title
of the adjoining landowner ex
tends to the ordinary high tide.
—If you have to jam on the
brakes to avoid hitting a car that
slows down in front of you, you
are going too fast for traffic con
ditions.
