reservations; Fort Drum. The governor is hereby authorized to cede to
the United States full concurrent jurisdiction over the tracts of land
comprising the Fort Drum military installation and any other lands that
may be acquired by the United States for military purposes at or near

prevent the execution on such tracts of any process, civil or criminal,
issued under the authority of this state, nor prevent from operating
within the bounds of such tracts any of the laws or regulations of the
state, not incompatible with the free use and enjoyment of the premises
by the United States or the purposes for which such cession is made, nor
prevent from operating within the same tracts or parcels of land the
laws or ordinances of the counties of Jefferson, Lewis and St. Lawrence,
or the towns thereof, not incompatible with the free use and enjoyment
of the premises by the United States or the purposes for which such
cession is made; and that the United States shall retain such
jurisdiction so long only as such tracts or parcels of land shall be
used for military purposes.
