Research notes

State-administered overlay coordinated with US Army Corps §404 Clean Water Act and §10 Rivers and Harbors Act jurisdictions on navigable waters. Per-parcel geographic predicate keyed to the DNR Public Waters Inventory (PWI) GIS layer. Federal conflict check enabled for CWA/§10 overlap. Shoreland zoning (next overlay) applies on top within the regulated buffer.
