RESTORATION PLAN' <br /> John and Kasey Childs <br /> 3799 S. Penninsula Road <br /> North Sand Lake <br /> Comp. No. 012.4235.01.100 <br /> Buffer Restoration <br /> The restored buffer must extend from the ordinary high water mark 50 feet inland on Class 1 lakes <br /> such as North Sand Lake in Burnett County. <br /> Buffers consist of two major components: the first component (35 feet deep) is a no-touch, natural <br /> vegetation zone, and the second component is a minimum maintenance zone. A single <br /> viewing/access corridor up to 30 feet wide may cross both zones perpendicular to the shore. <br /> Vegetation removal, cutting, trimming, and land disturbing activities are prohibited in the no- <br /> touch zone. Limited pruning and mowing are allowed in the viewing/access corridor and the <br /> minimum maintenance zone. Walkways, pathways, and stairs must be located in the <br /> viewing/access corridor; and piers, wharfs, and lifts must be placed in water immediately in front of <br /> the corridor. <br /> The no-touch zone must be established and maintained from the ordinary highwater mark and <br /> extend inland 35 feet. The remaining buffer area, extending back to 50 feet, must remain vegetated. <br /> The enclosed Shoreline Buffer Restoration Guide for Landowners provides planting <br /> instructions, plant lists and sources, and additional guidance for your restoration project. <br /> Viewing/Access Corridor <br /> The viewing corridor and minimum maintenance area(from 35 to 50 feet from the ordinary high <br /> water mark) must be vegetated to prevent erosion. Lawn grass is a suitable cover here. The view <br /> corridor width along the stairway is fine. <br /> prepared by Cheryl Clemens,Harmony Environmental,on behalf of the Bumett County Land and Water Conservation <br /> Department.
