A single viewing and access corridor up to 30 feet wide may cross both zones <br /> perpendicular to the shore. Vegetation removal,cutting,trimming and land disturbing activities <br /> are prohibited in the no-touch zone. Limited pruning and mowing are allowed in the <br /> viewinglaccess corridor and the minimum maintenance zone. Walkways, pathways, and stairs <br /> must be located in the viewing/access corridor; and piers,wharfs and lifts must be placed in the water <br /> immediately in front of the corridor. <br /> The no-touch zone must be established and maintained from the ordinary high water mark and extend <br /> inland thirty-five feet. The remaining buffer area, extending back to 50 feet and the 30 foot viewing <br /> corridor must be vegetated. <br /> The booklet, "Shoreline Buffer Restoration—A Guide for Landowners", provides planting instructions, <br /> plant lists and sources and additional guidance for your restoration project. <br /> Removal of Items within restoration area <br /> OKAy <br /> rt Y +^ <br /> All items must be removed from Planting Areas 1 and 2.
