In addition to the modeling requirements presented in Table 8-22, incorporatethe following components into the design of protective structures:• Structural Integrity (ability to withstand extreme wave events withoutsignificant damage)• Functional Design Modeling Requirements:• Wave Run-Up• Wave Overtopping• Wave Transmission• Wave Reflection• Mass Entrainment (clast or rock fragment sizing for dynamic revetments)Detail the following in the Existing Conditions Analysis:• Local soil characteristics• The erosion and hydraulic dynamics of the shoreline (i.e., what is causingthe problem)• The existing lakeshore morphology and potential impacts or changes• The existing or potential fish and wildlife use• Aquatic habitat and riparian habitat• The potential for access related disturbances from machinery or other heavyequipment• The ability to access and repair lakeshore stabilization works in the future• The potential erosion or sediment releases resulting from proposed works• The identification of the control measures that will minimize the footprintof the works and associated foreshore disturbance• The identification of the control measures that will minimize direct andindirect impacts to backshore riparian vegetation and nearshore fish andwildlife populations, species, and habitats• How to avoid direct and indirect impacts to other properties or serviceswith particular emphasis on the controls for containing the spread of orcolonization by invasive plants and speciesCHAPTER 8: Shorezone Protective Structures and BMPsTRPA BMP HandbookPage 8-86 2012
