253.141ƒ?ŸRiparian rights defined; certain submerged bottoms subject to private ownership.ƒ??

(1)ƒ?ŸRiparian rights are those incident to land bordering upon navigable waters. They are rights of ingress, egress, boating, bathing, and fishing and such others as may be or have been defined by law. Such rights are not of a proprietary nature. They are rights inuring to the owner of the riparian land but are not owned by him or her. They are appurtenant to and are inseparable from the riparian land. The land to which the owner holds title must extend to the ordinary high watermark of the navigable water in order that riparian rights may attach. Conveyance of title to or lease of the riparian land entitles the grantee to the riparian rights running therewith whether or not mentioned in the deed or lease of the upland.

@williwaw ?ÿfinding the MHWL? You mean marking it? based on the furnished elevations per the State form for boundary surveys that abut state lands? Itƒ??s actually rather easy.
