THE GOVERNOR

[27 Pa.B. 2634]

Acceptance of Concurrent Legislative Jurisdiction

May 21, 1997

   I, Thomas J. Ridge, Governor of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in accordance with the Act of August 5, 1977, P. L. 181 No. 47, § 2; 74 P. S. § 4, hereby notify the public of acceptance of concurrent legislative jurisdiction over the Defense Personnel Support Center in the City of Philadelphia. The United States Department of Defense, acting through the Department of the Army retrocedes concurrent legislative jurisdiction over this federal enclave. The Defense Personnel Support Center consists of approximately 86.15 acres of land located in the Southern portion of the City of Philadelphia and is bordered by Oregon Avenue and 20th Street.

   Retrocession of legislative jurisdiction does not transfer an estate or other interest in land. The Commonwealth's acceptance of concurrent legislative jurisdiction simply permits Pennsylvania's laws to be enforced in conjunction with federal laws on the lands that compose the federal enclave.
