Limit of the Natural Maritime Public Domain off the sea in the Somme

The soil and subsoil of the sea, between the boundary of the highest seas and the wide border of the territorial sea (12 miles). French law referred to Roman law in the Mediterranean, the current definition of shoreline, regardless of the maritime façade, dates back to the ordinance of the navy of Colbert (Article 1 of Title VII of Book IV of the Ordinance of August 1681): it will be known as the seafront and shore of all that it covers and discovers during the new and full moons, and how far the great flood of March can extend on the strikes. The case-law, the judgment of the Council of State — Kreitmann of 12 October 1973, stated that ‘these provisions must be understood as fixing the limit of the maritime public domain at the point to which the highest seas may extend, in the absence of exceptional disturbances’. Finally, these principles were enshrined and supplemented by Article L.2111-4 of the General Code of Property of Public Persons (CGPPP). This article also defines the consistency of the maritime public domain. The maritime public domain (DPM) is one of the broadest elements of the public domain of the State and its consistency is largely based on the finding of a state of affairs resulting from the action of nature. Its limits are therefore not fixed in relation to riparian properties. Like any public domain of the state, the DPM is above all inalienable and imprescriptible. This principle was decreed by the Edit de Moulins of 1566 for the DPM, a principle reaffirmed by the CGPPP (Article L.3111-1). __Origin__ Name of the general councillors of the cantons of the Somme department __Partner organisations__ DDTM Somme __Links annexes__ * [XML metadata view](http://ogc.geo-ide.developpement-durable.gouv.fr/csw/all-dataset?REQUEST=GetRecordById&SERVICE=CSW&VERSION=2.0.2&RESULTTYPE=results&elementSetName=full&TYPENAMES=gmd:MD_Metadata&OUTPUTSCHEMA=http://www.isotc211.org/2005/gmd&ID=fr-120066022-jdd-45298434-e448-4cab-8faf-2d6a18652652) [See this page on geo.data.gouv.fr](https://geo.data.gouv.fr/fr/datasets/547829de99aead8a042c6239f2321cb52b91aa8d)
