Ocean Shore Public Access Law of 1987- Chapter 65 of 21 GCA “Real Property”. País/Territorio Guam (EUA) Tipo de documento Legislación Fecha 1987 (2006) Fuente FAO, FAOLEX Materia Tierra y suelos Palabra clave Tenencia de tierras Derechos tradicionales/derechos consuetudinarios Ordenación de áreas costeras Terrenos públicos Servidumbre Área geográphica Micronesia, Oceania, Pacífico Sur Resumen This Chapter provides for public access to the ocean shore, i.e. land between the mean low waterline and series of lines connecting angle points prescribed in section 3. Extensive areas of ocean shore are inaccessible to the public due to the absence of public rights-of-way and the ocean is a vital part of the patrimony of the people of Guam and is a major source of recreation and livelihood. In order to safeguard access to the ocean shore this Chapter provides for protection and maintenance of traditional rights of way to the ocean. It shall be unlawful for the owner, lessee, or tenant of any lands adjacent to or abutting the ocean shore to block, impede, or interfere with the public use of any traditional right-of-way the Territorial Planning Commission shall not approve or permit any development of land which will result in the blocking of rights of way. Other provisions concern acquisition of right of way by the Department of Parks and Recreation and prescribe criteria for rights of way. Texto completo Inglés Página web www.guamcourts.org
