[NHCOLL-L:5130] Nation Parks collecting

[CSTURMJR at pitt.edu]

Folks,

Hopefully, someone has researched this question or knows the answer. It is
illegal to collect on lands under the jurisdiction of the National Parks
Service unless one has a permit. This, to me, is very clear for a
terrestrial site. If you are within the area of a park's boundary, you
don't collect. Where, however, is the boundary of a park that includes
marine shoreline? Does the park end at the high tide line, the low tide
line, some distasnce offshore? Does anyone have info on this?

Thanks.

Regards,
Charlie
