Title I of Public Law 99–420 ( 16 U.S.C. 341 note) is amended by adding at the end the following: In this section: The term land within the Park means land owned or controlled by the United States— that is within the boundary of the Park established by section 101; or that is outside the boundary of the Park; and in which the Secretary has or acquires a property interest or conservation easement pursuant to this title. The terms marine species , marine worm , and shellfish have the meanings given those terms in section 6001 of title 12 of the Maine Revised Statutes (as in effect on the date of enactment of this section).
The term State law means the law (including regulations) of the State of Maine, including the common law. The term taking means the removal or attempted removal of a marine species, marine worm, or shellfish from the natural habitat of the marine species, marine worm, or shellfish. The Secretary shall allow for the traditional taking of marine species, marine worms, and shellfish, on land within the Park between the mean high watermark and the mean low watermark in accordance with State law. .
