New Castle County Delaware River Shoreline Study :

The final report of the Delaware River Shoreline Study is made up of six sections. These present the findings from the study of each task defined in the contract proposal which resulted in policy recommendations. A brief summary and the recommendations are included at the beginning of the report. Task I is a review and analysis of water-based recreation demand based on existing studies. Task II is a literature survey of water-based recreation facilities in other urban areas of the nation. Task III is an evaluation of shoreline locations for their suitability as water-based recreation sites. Task IV is a synthesis of the results of the three previous tasks into a set of five recreation development scenarios. These scenarios are not recommendations but are alternatives to be evaluated in a public survey. Task V is a report on the workshop held to discuss progress on Tasks I - IV. Task VI presents and analyzes the survey results.
