noticed meeting of the State Lands Commission. The determination of

jurisdiction accepted shall become effective when certified copies of
its orders or resolutions have been recorded in the office of the
county recorder of each county in which any part of the land is
situated. The State Lands Commission shall keep copies of its orders
or resolutions and make them available to the public upon request.
