Where agricultural use is allowed by the local <br />government, perennial ground cover is required within 50 feet of the <br />ordinary high water level and within the bluff impact zone. Within the <br />slope preservation zone, a local government may allow row crops <br />subject to a conservation plan approved by the soil and water <br />conservation district board. <br />Subp. 3. Feedlots. New animal feedlots and manure storage areas are <br />prohibited. Existing animal feedlots and manure storage areas must <br />conform to the standards in chapter 7020. <br />Subp. 4.

Where forestry is allowed by the local government, <br />tree harvesting and biomass harvesting within woodlands, and <br />associated reforestation, must be conducted consistent with <br />recommended practices in Conserving Wooded Areas in Developing <br />Communities, Best Management Practices in Minnesota, incorporated <br />by reference under part 6106.0090. <br />Subp. 5. Aggregate mining and extraction. If allowed by the local <br />government, aggregate mining and extraction requires a conditional <br />use permit or interim use permit issued by the local government, <br />subject to the following: <br />A. new aggregate mining and extraction are prohibited within the <br />shore impact zone, slope preservation zone, bluff impact zone, <br />and within 40 feet of the bluffline; <br />B. processing machinery must be located consistent with setback <br />standards for structures as provided in part 6106.0120; <br />C. only one barge loading area, which must be limited to the <br />minimum size practicable, is permitted for each mining or <br />extraction operation; <br />D. new and, where practicable, existing aggregate mining and <br />extraction operations must be managed to minimize visibility <br />and must be screened by establishing and maintaining natural <br />screening devices. The unscreened boundaries of aggregate <br />mining and extraction areas are limited to only the barge <br />loading area; <br />E. a site management plan must be developed by the operator and <br />approved by the local government before new aggregate mining <br />and extraction commence. Operations must be consistent with <br />the site plan throughout the duration of operations at the site. <br />The site management plan must: <br />(1) describe how the site will be developed over time with an <br />emphasis on minimizing environmental risk to public <br />waters; <br />(2) explain where staged reclamation may occur at certain <br />zoning. Subparts 2 — 7 describe six uses with <br />special considerations. <br />Mining, cellular towers, and disability <br />accommodations are the only uses that <br />require a CUP or IUP in these rules. <br />Working Draft Rules <br />MRCCA Working Draft Rules — DNR, June 2, 2014 <br />24 <br />Commentary /Rationale for Changes <br />
