Guidelines for Shorelines:

Guidelines for Shorelines: A. Development, particularly tall structures, should be set back from the edge of natural coastal waters, rivers and bayous to preserve the visual quality of the waterbody, and to protect shoreline vegetation. B. New structures should not extend seaward farther than adjacent structures in the area. C. Facilities that are not dependent on a waterfront location should be located away from the shoreline, for environmental as well as aesthetic reasons. D. The natural appearance and visual attractiveness of the shoreline should be maintained. E. The upland vegetation against which wetlands are generally viewed should be maintained in the natural state, and F. Structures built at the edge of coastal wetlands in predominantly undeveloped areas should be designed to blend with the surrounding area. MISS. CODE ANN. §§49-15-304, 49-27-59, 57-15-6, 57-15-10.
