A.
The Department shall develop and maintain maps on its website that:
(1)
Display the areas that are appropriate for structural shoreline stabilization measures; and
(2)
Are readily available to the public.
B.
When determining the areas appropriate for structural shoreline stabilization measures, the Department shall consider:
(1)
The presence or absence of a natural shoreline;
(2)
Proximity to channels;
(3)
As determined by the Department based on site conditions, the presence of high energy waves or a severely eroding shore that would render a nonstructural stabilization measure infeasible;
(4)
The extent to which a water-dependent facility requires a bulkheaded shoreline for loading and unloading operations, such as the berthing of commercial vessels;
(5)
Impacts to rare, threatened and endangered species, and species in need of conservation; and
(6)
Any other site-specific factor, as determined relevant by the Department.
