About

California State Lands Commission (CSLC), the state's coastal tidelands and submerged O&G leases. Public data agency data services owned by CA_State_Lands_Commission (probed 2026-05-02). 5 services exposed via 5 methods: searchOffshoreLeases (~34 polygons, Active 26 / Inactive 8) ⭐ covering the Long Beach Unit and Wilmington field tracts; searchOnshoreLeases (~5.5K CSLC leases) ⭐ defaults to TypeofLease='Oil & Gas Lease' (76 records); searchSchoolLands (~1.3K PLSS polygons keyed by TWP/RNGE/SEC_TRCT/MERID, note the field is CNTY, 4-char, not COUNTY); searchGrantedLands (~115 tidelands grants to coastal cities, Active 105 / Repealed 4); and getServiceInfo. Upstream quirks: the Offshore_Lease_Polygons schema is lean, only PRC (lease number string), Lease_Stat, Notes, and shape, with no lessee/operator/dates. CSLC Leases dates are ISO 8601 timestamp strings; Latitude/Longitude are also stored as STRING fields, with geometry.x/y as fallback. School_Lands uses `CNTY` not COUNTY, and the handler fixes a single 'Tinity' typo to Trinity. Granted_Lands COUNTY has both 'Marin' and 'Marin County' variants, which the handler matches via an UPPER LIKE pattern. CSLC Leases TypeofLease has 27 distinct values; LeaseorPermit has 4 (General Lease/Mineral Resource Lease/Permit/Other Authorized Use); RecordStatus is degenerate (all 5524 = Active).
