NR 120.14(26)(26) Roofs for barnyard runoff management and manure storage facilities. NR 120.14(26)(a)(a) Description. Roofs for barnyard runoff management and manure storage facilities are a roof and supporting structure constructed specifically to prevent precipitation from contacting manure. This practice shall be implemented using the standards in par. (c). NR 120.14(26)(b)1.1. Cost-sharing may not be provided for materials and labor for other structures or buildings. NR 120.14(26)(b)2.2. The roofed structure may not be permanently enclosed unless the landowner receives written approval from the department. NR 120.14(26)(b)2.a.a. For purposes of this subsection, a permanently enclosed structure is defined as a structure where the sum of the length of the walls exceeds 50% of the total length of the perimeter of the structure. When the structure has a shape other than a rectangle or square, each rectangular or square portion of the total structure, excluding the common sides, shall be calculated separately to determine whether it exceeds 50%. A segment of the perimeter shall be considered a wall if greater than 50% of the opening from eave to floor is of solid building material. NR 120.14(26)(b)2.b.b. An application requesting cost-sharing for the enclosure of a roofed barnyard runoff management system shall be submitted in writing to the department for its approval. The written application and the applicable cost-share agreement shall include a recognition by the landowner or land operator that the barnyard may not be used for purposes other than an animal lot for the duration of the cost-share agreement. NR 120.14(26)(b)3.3. The livestock facility may not establish additional outdoor animal lots on the site unless the department certifies that adequate runoff control practices are established for the duration of the cost-share agreement. NR 120.14(26)(c)1.1. The roof shall be designed to support wind, snow and other live and dead loads consistent with the American Society of Agricultural Engineers (ASAE) Engineering Practice (EP) 288.5, 1992, which is incorporated by reference for this chapter. NR 120.14 NoteNote: Copies of this publication are available for inspection at the central office of the department of Natural Resources, and the offices of the Legislative Reference Bureau and Secretary of State.
NR 120.14(26)(c)2.2. The roof and supporting structure shall be constructed of materials with a life expectancy of a minimum of 10 years. NR 120.14(27)(a)(a) Description. Livestock fencing is the enclosure, separation or division of one area of land from another in a manner that provides a permanent barrier to livestock. The purpose of the practice is to exclude livestock from land areas that should be protected from grazing or gleaning where degradation of the natural resource will likely result if livestock access is permitted. This practice shall be implemented using one or more of the standards in par. (c). NR 120.14(27)(b)1.1. Cost-sharing may be provided for permanent fencing when fencing is needed to: NR 120.14(27)(b)1.b.b. Reduce the impact to a resource from sedimentation that is being caused by livestock. NR 120.14(27)(b)1.d.d. Eliminate the degradation of other natural resources as defined within the approved priority watershed plan, priority lake plan, notice of discharge or project grant application. NR 120.14(27)(b)2.a.a. Fencing of cropland fields for the primary purpose of providing areas for gleaning by livestock or for handling or segregating of livestock. NR 120.14(27)(b)2.c.c. Situations where benefits to water quality improvement cannot be readily defined. NR 120.14(27)(c)(c) Standards and specifications.
