• CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT #717 CONDITIONS 1. Hauling shall be on USH 12-18 to the Landfill. 2. Hauling shall be limited to one season. 3. Approximately ten acres of land will be opened up for clay extraction at one time. When the excavation is complete on the first ten acres, the next ten acres will be stripped of topsoil. That topsoil will then be placed on the first ten acres stripped. This procedure will then be repeated for the following acres. After the topsoil is replaced, it will be graded and seeded. 4. Soil erosion control measures will be required and enforced. Siltation fences will be constructed as required. 5. Hours of operation shall be 6:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Truck hauling will be limited to 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. The intent is that work days shall be Monday through Friday with the exception of an occasional Saturday for rain make-up. 6. A good faith effort will be made to leave several inches of clay on site. Surface of topsoil will be prepared prior to seeding such that roots could be established. 7. The land will be kept in grassland/hay production for an initial five year period to allow soil structure to become re-established, and to assure no harmful effects to area groundwater. 8. After this initial period, the reintroduction of a more intense land use such as row-crop agriculture may be allowed based on soil test results and committee approval. 9. The Town Board will be notified of any requested changes in land use. 10. Soil testing shall include remapping based on soil borings. In addition, test plots shall be done to determine yields on the rebuilt soil so future nitrogen can be closely tied to yield expectations. 11. Land use must follow State standards for nutrients and pesticides currently being set by the U.W. , State and Federal agencies. (These standards will be in effect before a petition for a land use change can be made, and they will establish specific soil series application rates for agricultural chemicals for the entire State of Wisconsin) . 12. All construction equipment and vehicles will be fueled and stored on land that has not had the clay removed. Farm equipment will also be stored and fueled on land that is not disturbed. 13. Once the clay has been excavated, the borrow area will be regraded to match the original topography and drainage patterns. Sandy loam subsoil materials will be backhauled from the Landfill to replace the excavated materials. 14. Clay extraction will be limited to the deep, low-lying soils in the valley bottom. The steep, adjacent side-slopes will not be excavated.
