Xxxxxx Analysis. The TSB is a line perpendicular to the coast which extends seaward from the terminal point of the Poland-Soviet Union land boundary for a distance of 12 nautical miles (n.m.). The agreement specifies that the TSB is applicable to the respective territorial sea claims of the two states, i.e., the Polish TSB is 3 n.m. long and the Soviet Union's 12 n.m. The seaward terminal of the TSB also marks the initial point of the respective continental shelf boundaries. Gulf of Gdansk An additional maritime boundary has been delimited in the boundary area: the straight baseline for the Polish sector of the Gulf of Gdansk. Decree No. 9 of the Dziennik Ustaw (Journal of Laws) Nr. 51 of 1956, Article 4, states that the Gulf of Gdansk is closed by a line connecting the Hel Promontory with the seaward point of the Polish-Soviet land boundary. The Polish closing line is 29.6 n.m. long, more than Convention-approved length for a juridical bay. Enclosed within the gulf of Gdansk is the Bay of Puck which forms an arm of the larger Gulf. The limits of the Gulf delimited by the closing line meet the semicircularity test of the Convention on the Territorial Sea.
