An early step in the comprehensive update process is to collect and analyze information and data on existing shoreline conditions.  This information will provide a basis for updating shoreline management goals, policies and regulations, and for identifying public access and shoreline restoration opportunities.

The Final Shoreline Inventory and Characterization Report provides the shoreline inventory and analysis.  The report includes a discussion of the ecosystem processes that influence the City's shorelines and provides more detailed descriptions of the ecological functions and land use pattern along each shoreline.  Accompanying this report, in Appendix B, is a series of maps depicting shoreline features and conditions (see Map Folio listing, below).

The term 'shorelines' in this report refers to areas that meet the criteria for 'shorelines of the state' as shown in Maps 1a and 1b: Proposed SMP Boundary.  In Roy, these shorelines are the Muck Lake and Muck Creek shorelines.
