NR 129.10NR 129.10 Limitations on award. Before awarding grant assistance for any mapping project, the department shall determine that:

NR 129.12(1)(1) Completed maps shall be submitted to the department, in accordance with s. NR 129.14, within one year after the date of acceptance of the grant offer unless the department extends that period. If such an extension is warranted by the circumstances and is requested by the grantee prior to the end of the initial one-year project period, the department may extend the project period for up to 3 additional years.

NR 129.12(2)(2) If the grantee fails to comply with sub. (1), the grantee may not receive any state funds under this chapter. A new grant application for the uncompleted portion of the mapping project would then be required for ranking in the next priority list.

NR 129.13(1)(a)(a) Contracts between the grantee and the mapping consultant, and between the mapping consultant and subcontractors, if any, shall conform to the minimum mapping specifications set forth in this section, unless par. (b) is applicable.

NR 129.13 NoteNote: Within the 7 southeastern Wisconsin counties of Kenosha, Milwaukee, Ozaukee, Racine, Walworth, Washington and Waukesha, the department encourages applicants to conduct mapping projects in accordance with specifications for large scale mapping which have been prepared by the Southeastern Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission (SEWRPC). These specifications may be obtained by writing to the:

NR 129.13(1)(b)(b) If the department determines that compliance with the specifications of this section would be impractical in specific cases, it may approve alternative specifications which, in its opinion, represent a reasonable approach to achieving the desired end product.

NR 129.13(1)(c)(c) The maps, aerial photographs and negatives, and all other data developed as part of the mapping project shall be considered public records and shall be made available for public inspection.

NR 129.13(2)(a)(a) Records. It shall be the grantee’s responsibility to make known to the mapping consultant all existing monumentation and to furnish the consultant with existing local unpublished survey data of the required order of accuracy or better.

NR 129.13(2)(b)(b) Control report. The consultant shall prepare and furnish to the grantee a bound control report providing all data pertaining to the project survey control. The report shall contain:

NR 129.13(2)(b)1.1. A narrative, outlining survey methods used and applicable survey instrumentation and computational and adjustment procedures utilized;

NR 129.13(2)(b)3.3. Sketches, descriptions, elevations and state plane coordinates of all existing and newly established recoverable control; and

NR 129.13(2)(b)4.4. A scale control diagram summarizing the existing project survey control utilized for origin and closure purposes, along with the relationship to newly established recoverable horizontal and vertical control.

NR 129.13(2)(c)(c) Vertical control. The consultant shall perform necessary field surveys to maintain full model vertical ground control with all elevations referred to national geodetic vertical datum of 1929. Third-order accuracy is required and shall conform to national geodetic survey specifications. There shall be enough ground-surveyed bench marks such that no point within the flood plain or shoreland area will be greater than 3000 feet from a described and recoverable bench mark. No analytical aerotriangulation for vertical mapping control shall be accepted unless it is otherwise impractical to gain physical or legal access.

NR 129.13(2)(d)(d) Horizontal control. The consultant shall perform horizontal control surveys to obtain third-order, class I accuracy and shall conform to national geodetic survey specifications. The horizontal control survey shall be based on the state plane coordinate system and shall originate and end on the basic control for which closures are known and available, or shall be run to make a closed and checked circuit. Analytical aerotriangulation for horizontal mapping control is acceptable.

NR 129.13(2)(e)(e) Specifications for vertical and horizontal control have been prepared and published by the U.S. department of commerce in the following publications:
