Getting Started
If you would like more details about the survey before getting started, please see the
Shoreland Program Guide. The MI Shoreland Stewards Survey asks questions related to management practices in each of the four zones of your shoreland property: Upland, Buffer, Shoreline and Lake. It should take approximately 30 minutes. Below each question will be more information to help you in answering the questions or how you could potentially improve your management practices.
What is your level?
Three different levels can be achieved:
Gold, Silver and Bronze. Each property is different and some will qualify right away. Other properties may not qualify until some management practices are improved while still others may not be able to qualify at all.
