This resolution urges Congress to affirm that the Piscataqua River and Portsmouth Harbor are entirely within the state of New Hampshire. It emphasizes that jurisdiction and ownership of the river and its submerged lands belong solely to New Hampshire, with the public trust in these waters being essential for the state's residents. The resolution highlights the importance of adequate protection and management of the river to ensure public use and safety, noting that previous attempts to clarify the boundary with Maine have not been successful.

Furthermore, the resolution calls on the New Hampshire congressional delegation to introduce legislation to formally establish the boundary between New Hampshire and Maine in the inner Piscataqua River. It also requests that Seavey Island and Badger Island be recognized as part of New Hampshire and that the duty stations for Portsmouth Naval Shipyard personnel be designated as Portsmouth, New Hampshire. The resolution concludes by directing that copies be sent to relevant congressional members and the President of the United States.
