"The work contained in this report is a contribution to first-year program development activities and was prepared in fulfillment of an agreement with the Division of Water Resources. This volume contains three interrelated work elements: land use and ownership data gathering and analysis, existing land use policy -- inventory and analysis, and impact implications of shore protection measurements. The land use inventory includes an analysis of existing use patterns in the shoreline study area and the description of an information monitoring system. The policy analysis examines the policies and practices of each community toward land and water resource use and shoreline protection. The shore protection study identifies vulnerable man-made and natural conditions along the shore and inventories alternative measures for protecting the shore. The information and analysis provided in these elements will be useful in the second year for further studies of resource capacities and multiple-use needs along the Lake Michigan Shore.
