This limitation begins when notice of intent to register is received.

NR 135.62(4)(c)
(c) Registration of land containing a marketable nonmetallic mineral deposit does not relieve the property owner from the obligation to obtain all necessary permits and approvals to be able to mine the deposit, nor does mineral registration create a presumption that these permits will be granted. However, land use plans and zoning ordinances adopted by a county, municipality or agency shall make all reasonable provisions to preserve identified marketable nonmetallic mineral deposits.
