Description:

"Shore processes along the 7-mile coastaline between Illinois/Wisconsin State Line and the southern boundary of the Illinois Beach State Park were investigated through a comprehensive review of survey data and previous studies since 1872 through 1977 ... Six alternative erosion control plans were investigated. One of these is a "no-action" alternative and the remaining five combine certain acceptable protective structures, recreational facilities, and nourishment plans."--Page i, iv.
