The bed of this navigable river below the ordinary high-water mark is state-owned public trust, so removing historic artifacts from it is restricted and generally not permitted without state authorization; the adjacent banks and uplands are usually private and need the landowner's permission; state law also protects archaeological sites and unmarked burials.
