Burnett County Land and Water Conservation Department <br /> 7410 County Road K, #109 <br /> Siren, WI 54872 <br /> Telephone #(715) 349-2186 <br /> Fax#(715) 349-2102 <br /> September 11, 2002 c <br /> TO: Jim Flanigan, Zoning Administrator p�n?`y <br /> r <br /> FROM: Cheryl Bursik, Shoreline Restoration Consultant <br /> CC: Dave Ferris, County Conservationist <br /> Dave Ferris and I visited parcel w/computer number 012-4228-03-200 owned t�y� tner on <br /> September 9. We found the vegetation protection area disturbed within 35 feet of Pose. <br /> The vegetation protection area is 75 feet deep on Class 3 lakes such as Point Lake. The vegetation <br /> protection area(the buffer) consists of two major components: the first component (35 feet deep)is a <br /> no-touch, natural 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 and land disturbing activities are prohibited in the no-touch zone. Limited <br /> pruning and mowing are allowed in the viewing/access corridor and the minimum maintenance <br /> zone. Walkways, pathways, and stairs must be located in the viewing/access corridor, and piers, wharfs <br /> and lifts must be placed in water immediately in front of the corridor. Bare areas must be vegetated in <br /> the viewing corridor to minimize erosion. <br /> RESTORATION REQUIREMENTS <br /> The contractor has adequately stabilized the viewing corridor down the hill to the wetland by seeding <br /> and placing erosion control blanket on the slope. Silt fence is also installed below the construction site. <br /> The viewing corridor on the peninsula near the water must be limited to 30 feet wide within 75 feet of <br /> the water. The current cleared area is 53 wide by 28 feet deep. Revegetate a no-touch area at least 18 <br /> wide by 28 feet deep to establish a viewing corridor no wider than 30 feet. Choose trees and shrubs <br /> from the Oak or Pine Forest list in the enclosed landowner guide. Plant at least 8 shrubs and 3 trees <br /> scattered throughout the no-touch area to be planted. <br /> The following are recommended: <br /> White Pine <br /> Hazelnut <br /> Grey dogwood <br /> Serviceberry <br /> Mowing is prohibited in the no-touch area—allow the groundcover to recover naturally. <br /> Complete the restoration by November 1, 2002. <br />
