Demolition and Grading Project Description planningaeJzu.,ngAgenaY
General:
Remove old cabin, clear trees and rocks, and regrade building pad to
walkout elevation in preparation for future building. Include the lakeside
open area which today is very uneven and also has some rocks.
Some of this work will be in close proximity to the property line. My
neighbor is aware of the upcoming work and understands that removing
some of the trees, rocks and stumps near the property line may disturb
this ground a bit. Whatever gets disturbed will be repaired during
regrading.
Old Cabin:
Demolish 22'x24' shack and dispose of debris by best means
Some details:
No buried foundation, just blocks on grade that are visible
South side of this building is ready to collapse, North side is a bit
sturdier. Studs are 24" oc in this building, no sheetrock.
Everything inside has been removed except for a cast iron tub and
pedestal sink.
Electrical has been disconnected long ago. May check with Bayfield
electric to see if they have a record of this.
I had an old diagram from Rasmussen that showed a buried septic
tank in the front yard of this building. Not sure if this is true or
not. If the tank is still there their should be a drain line going to
the leach pit area. If this is present, can we cap or seal off this
for possible future reconnection or what would you
recommend here please?
There is a buried water supply line coming from the other cabin.
Locate and cap the end of this line or possible future
reconnection please.
There is a buried propane supply line coming from the nearby tank.
This line can be removed or cut as needed.
Tree Removal
Remove and dispose of 12 trees as marked in the Phase 1 area.
RECEIVE®
APR 182026
Stumps Baru co
Remove and dispose of the stumps from the 12 removed trees. Planning a,4 Zon;n8A8enc,
There is another group of low cut stumps in the center island. Please
remove these as well and dispose with the others
Rocks
There are about XX rocks that are visible. I have marked the visible ones
with White Paint. There may be others buried. Please remove all rocks
and stockpile for future landscaping use. Include the flat area on the
lakeside of this old cabin. The center area may work well for rock
stockpile but have a look as to where you think they would be out of the
way while work is underway.
Regrade
After the old cabin, tree, stumps, and rocks have been removed please
regrade and set up for a future building with walkout elevation. Details of
what this building will be are still being worked out and a separate permit
will be prepared for this.
Stump removal, rough grade in backlot
There are many more tree stumps, 8 trees, and rocks to remove in the
backlot. Goal is to clean up this area and begin to construct an improved
access and raised building pad for a future building.
Erosion Control and ReVegitation
The site plan shows locations for placement of straw filled tube type
erosion control barriers. Revegitation of the disturbed areas will be
immediate. Native plantings near the lakeshore plus turf grass in the more
open locations will be cultivated at the fastest possible rate.
Thank you.

Impervious Surface: An area that releases as runoff all or a majority of the precipitation that falls on it.
"Impervious surface" excludes frozen soil but includes rooftops, sidewalks, driveways, parking lots and streets
unless specifically designed, constructed and maintained to be pervious.
Calculation of Impervious Surface: Percentage of impervious surface shall be calculated by dividing the
surface area of existing and proposed impervious surfaces on the portion of a lot or parcel that is within 300
feet of the ordinary high water mark by the total surface area of the lot or parcel, multiplied by 100.
Impervious Surface Standard: Allow up to 15% impervious surface but not more than 30% impervious
surface on the portion of a lot or parcel that is within 300 feet of the ordinary high water mark. A permit can be
issued for development that exceeds 15% impervious surface but not more than 30% impervious surfaces with
a mitigation plan that meets the requirements of the Bayfield County Ordinance(s).
Existing Impervious Surfaces: For existing impervious surfaces that were lawfully placed when constructed
but that do not comply with the standards in Section(s) 13-1-32(g) and Section 13-1-40(h), the property owner
may do any of the following:
a. Maintenance and repair of all impervious surfaces:
b. Replacement of existing impervious surfaces with similar surfaces within the existing building footprint;
c. Relocation or modification of existing impervious surfaces with similar or different impervious surfaces,
provided that the relocation or modification does not result in an increase in the percentage that existed
on the effective date of the county shoreland ordinance, and meets the applicable setback
requirements in Section 13-1-32.

Subject: Re: 45030 Cty Rd D, Bayfield County Shoreland Grading Land Use Permit
Hi Scott:
Thank you for your quick reply. I will expand on the Errosion Control plan portion right away. Lot lines are
currently marked by myself using the CSM measurements and previously surveyed locating pins. I will
mark the perimeter of the proposed project area immediately so it is more visual. Then would love to
have you visit and view the project on site.
So the proposed plan does include some area between the 35' line and the shoreline for rock removal
. We always maintain a natural vegetative buffer the last 8 or so feet. We would like to dig rocks and
maybe stumps out of the space between 8' and the 35' line. No tree removal and the
shoreline vegetation and barrier is not going to be disturbed. Then smooth it back out and vegetate so it
is nicer for old people walking is what I was hoping for. Just a bit of grass would be disturbed which
would be immediately replaced and colorful native plantings are actually planned to be added in the
shoreline buffer zone. Silt fencing would be placed just in front of the vegetative barrier just in case. I will
make sure not one bit of dirt from excavation gets in the lake but I'll write a plan down better.
One Question please:
There may be an old septic tank buried in front of this old cabin. Old records are sketchy. I was just going
to make the excavator aware of it and have them deal with that possibility if it arises. Any thoughts or
things I should be doing on this please?
Any day next week for visit to this proposed project at 45030 Cty Rd D in Namakagon would be great. Just
let me know when.
Thank you Scott.

Hi Donald,
Let me know when you have this project staked out in a way that I can do an onsite
inspection to evaluate it. One thing I'd like to see in your plan are assurances that you wilt
not be doing any vegetation disturbance/removal in the 35' (from the shoreline) vegetation

Let me know.

Hi Scott:
Attached is an application for a Shoreland Grading Permit for a Demolition and Regrading
project in Namakagon. We had previously connected on this and I followed a checklist you
had sent over. So 6 docs attached:
1) Shoreland Grading Land Use Permit Form
2) Written Project Description including Errosion Control Plan
3) LiDAR Elevation Map - Existing + Proposed
4) Birdseye View Site Plan, using Bayfield County GIS basemap.
5) Impervious Surface Calculation
6) FEMA Floodplain Map, using Bayfield County link
The site redevelopment will follow with a conforming Bunkhouse/Garage. New plans and
permits will be presented separate from this Grading permit request.

Demolition and Grading Project Description
Updated 4/24/2026
General:
Remove old cabin, clear trees and rocks, and regrade building pad to
walkout elevation in preparation for future building. Include the lakeside
open area which today is very uneven and also has some rocks.
Some of this work will be in close proximity to the property line. My
neighbor is aware of the upcoming work and understands that removing
some of the trees, rocks and stumps near the property line may disturb
this ground a bit. Whatever gets disturbed will be repaired during
regrading.
Old Cabin:
Demolish 22'x24' shack and dispose of debris by best means
Some details:
No buried foundation, just blocks on grade that are visible
South side of this building is ready to collapse, North side is a bit
sturdier. Studs are 24" oc in this building, no sheetrock.
Everything inside has been removed except for a cast iron tub and
pedestal sink.
Electrical has been disconnected long ago. May check with Bayfield
electric to see if they have a record of this.
I had an old diagram from Rasmussen that showed a buried septic
tank in the front yard of this building. Not sure if this is true or
not. If the tank is still there their should be a drain line going to
the leach pit area. If this is present, can we cap or seal off this
for possible future reconnection or what would you
recommend here please?
There is a buried water supply line coming from the other cabin.
Locate and cap the end of this line or possible future
reconnection please.
There is a buried propane supply line coming from the nearby tank.
This line can be removed or cut as needed.
Tree Removal
Remove and dispose of 12 trees as marked in the Phase 1 area.
Stumps
Remove and dispose of the stumps from the 12 removed trees.
There is another group of low cut stumps in the center island. Please
remove these as well and dispose with the others
Rocks
There are about XX rocks that are visible. I have marked the visible ones
with White Paint. There may be others buried. Please remove all rocks
and stockpile for future landscaping use. Include the flat area on the
lakeside of this old cabin. The center area may work well for rock
stockpile but have a look as to where you think they would be out of the
way while work is underway.
Regrade
After the old cabin, tree, stumps, and rocks have been removed please
regrade and set up for a future building with walkout elevation. Details of
what this building will be are still being worked out and a separate permit
will be prepared for this.
Stump removal, rough grade in backlot
There are many more tree stumps, 8 trees, and rocks to remove in the
backlot. Goal is to clean up this area and begin to construct an improved
access and raised building pad for a future building.
Erosion Control and ReVegitation Plan - Updated 4/24/2026
The site plan shows locations for placement of erosion control barriers.
Revegitation of the disturbed areas will be immediate. Native plantings
near the lakeshore plus turf grass in the more open locations will be
cultivated at the fastest possible rate.
Details:
Disturbed areas of 35' shoreline buffer Area to be Revegitated by best
shoreland practices to include:
Quick cover by ryegrass.
Follow with native cover to be established
Conifers such as Red/White pine
Native grasses such as Priarie dropseed
Wildflowers such as Spotted JoeEyed,
Smooth Astor, HoaryVerain
Timeframe: Cover grass is immediate
Native plants to follow
Goal is to retain water runoff with native plantings and excluding turf grass
that would need to be watered and mowed.
Thank you.
