For land owners in Webster, Bienville and Bossier Parishes: The State of LA accepts and honors the 148.6 foot contour line as the mean high water line of Lake Bistineau. What does this mean to you? If your leased property near the lake includes land below the 148.6 foot contour line on the lake side, that land and any/all royalties coming from that land belong to the State of LA. I have documentation as proof. If anyone has info more current than a decision of 9 Jul 2003, let me know. Otherwise, just be advised that the state owns that part!
