2 Session topics Characteristics of natural and altered shorelines Lakes, shorelines, habitat and water quality Considerations when designing a natural shoreline Design ideas Michigan Natural Shoreline Partnership
3 Did you know? Twenty-four species of amphibians, 25 species of reptiles, 87 species of birds and 19 species of mammals are supported by Michigan inland lakes. (O Neal & Soulliere, et.al., 2006)

17 Results of a study of 44 Minnesota lakes indicate (on average) a 66% reduction in emergent and floating-leaf vegetation in the presence of shoreline development. Results of the same study indicate a positive relationship between the occurrence of emergent and floating-leaf vegetation and the abundance and size of certain fishes including: Northern pike Bluegill Pumpkinseed (Radomski and Goeman, 2001)

23 Natural Shoreline Landscapes on Michigan Inland Lakes Workshop for Property Owners Chapter 2: Understanding the Shoreline Identify upland cause(s) and source(s): Cause: overland runoff Source: stormwater collecting on impervious surfaces
24 Natural Shoreline Landscapes on Michigan Inland Lakes Workshop for Property Owners Chapter 2: Understanding the Shoreline Identify the causes and sources at water s edge: Cause: Undercut bank and bank failure Source: Removal of long-rooted native vegetation plus prolonged and repeated high water levels (level controlled lake)

Factors include: Freeze/thaw expansion and contraction Lack of snow cover and/or Spring ice-out (break-up) Rate of warm up Orientation of site to spring winds
