Importance:<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>The high water line (6,229 feet) outlines the area for special shoreline development standards such as for filling and dredging, motorized watercraft, and fish habitat and spawning provisions. In fact, <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>Code Chapter 84, Development Standards Lakeward of High Water <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>uses the high water line as a way to define special shoreline development standard requirements. In addition, the high water line is used to outline special land coverage provisions (<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>Code Chapter 30<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>, <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>Land Coverage<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>); specifically the maximum land coverage allowed in non-sensitive land within a Center of a conforming area plan, located further than 300 feet from the <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>High Water Line<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>of Lake Tahoe is 70%. <\/SPAN>Shoreline<\/SPAN>, another crucial feature of Lake Tahoe, is defined as the highest line normally covered by waters of a lake or body of waters and for Lake Tahoe, the shoreline elevation is 6,229.1 feet. <\/SPAN><\/P><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV>", "summary": "The mark showing the highest level reached by Lake Tahoe.
