 Pub. L. 90-339 (82 Stat. 177) 



AN ACT 



To provide for the adjustment of the legislative Juris- 

 diction exercised by the United States over lands with- 

 in the Crab Orchard National Wildlife Refuge in 

 Illinois 



Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Rep- 

 resentatives oj the United States of America in 

 Congress assembled. That, notwithstanding any 

 other provision of law, the obtaining or retaining 

 of exclusive jurisdiction or any other measure of 

 legislative jurisdiction by the United States over 

 lands or interests therein which have been or shall 

 hereafter be acquired as part of the Crab Orchard 

 National Wildlife Refuge in Illinois shall not be re- 

 quired. The Secretary of the Interior may relin- 

 quish to the State of Illinois such measure of legis- 

 lative jurisdiction as he may deem desirable over 

 any lands or interests in the said refuge that are 

 under his immediate jurisdiction, custody, or con- 

 trol. Such relinquishment of jurisdiction on the 

 part of the United States shall be indicated by filing 

 a notice thereof in such manner as may be pre- 

 scribed for this purpose by the laws of the State of 

 Illinois, and unless and until a notice is filed in ac- 

 cordance with such State laws, or with the Gover- 

 nor if the laws of such State do not prescribe an- 

 other manner, it shall be conclusively presumed 



that no transfer of jurisdiction pursuant to this 

 Act has taken place, nor shall any transfer of legis- 

 lative jurisdiction pursuant to this Act take place 

 unless and until the State of Illinois has accepted 

 jurisdiction in such manner as its laws may pro- 

 vide. Upon a relinquishment by the United States 

 of all of its legislative jurisdiction over said refuge 

 to the State of Illinois, the State thereafter shall, 

 with respect to such area, exercise the same juris- 

 diction which It would have had if legislative juris- 

 diction over such area had never been in the United 

 States. 



Sec. 2. Any civil or criminal process, lawfully 

 issued by competent authority of the State of Illi- 

 nois or political subdivision thereof may be served 

 and executed within any area of the Crab Orchard 

 Nuiional Wildlife Refuge under the exclusive, par- 

 tial, or concurrent jurisdiction of the United States 

 to the same extent and with the same efifect as 

 though such area were not subject to the legis- 

 lative jurisdiction of the United States:. Provided, 

 That this section shall not be construed to affect 

 the rights of authorized officers of the Federal Gov- 

 ernment or of any department or agency thereof to 

 issue rules and regulations at any time for the ptir- 

 pose of preventing interference with the carrying 

 out of Federal functions.
