Introduction
Some of the most valuable resources in.Jefferson County
are its shoreline areas. Many are highly productive biolog~
ically and support extensive wildlife, and are therefore
economically important. .Due to the ~esthetic value of these
areas, they are.highly desirable for development. In order
to make wise shoreline management decisions and permit eva. 1-
uations, a data base which.incorporates physical and biolog-
ical characteristics of these areas .is urgently needed.
The goal of this 6rmonth study (Phase I) is to identify'
key areas within the, county, which are.of highest potential
for development, perform a series of physical and biological.
measurements on each, and combine these data into .a..easily
understandible report which can be used.in the. planning pro4
cess. Due to time limitations, the.number of sites.which can
be considered under Phase I is necessarily limited. The data
generated by the study will serve as a base from which subse-
· quent phases can proceed to complete the biological understand-
ing and inventory of the shoreline ecosystems in Jefferson
County.
Under the guidance and sponsorship of the Jefferson County
Planning Department.and the Shoreline Management Advisory
Commission (SMAC), Anthony Roth, a local marine ecologist, will
conduct the study. As paPt of their school curriculum, local_
students will work with' the study as. research technicians,.
assisted by their advisors. During the project period, invest-
igation teams will assist the Jefferson CountY Planning Depart-
ment by collecting information for the evaluation'of individual
development permits.

During the course of the project the following elements will
be performed or developed:
