The maintenance plan shall include the following information: NR 726.11(2)(a)(a) A location map which shows the location and extent of the structure or feature to be maintained, in relation to other structures or features on the site. The map shall also include the extent and type of residual contamination, and include property boundaries. NR 726.11(2)(b)(b) A brief description of the type, depth and location of residual contamination. NR 726.11(2)(c)(c) A description of the maintenance actions required for maximizing effectiveness of the engineered control, feature, or other action for which maintenance is required.

NR 726.11(4)(4) Deed and parcel information. Responsible parties or other persons requesting closure shall submit all of the following items, for each property within or partially within the contaminated site boundaries other than public street or highway rights-of-way or railroad rights-of-way: NR 726.11(4)(a)(a) A copy of the most recent deed which includes the legal description of each property, except that, in situations where a buyer has purchased property under a land contract and has not yet received a deed, a copy of the land contract which includes the legal description shall be submitted.

Information on residual groundwater or soil contamination that has migrated onto a right–of–way will be found in the documents that are submitted as part of the case closure request for the source property. It is only in the situation where the source of the contamination is in the right-of-way, that a right-of-way will be listed on the department database as a separate property. In those situations, the maps that are required to be submitted, as an attachment to the case closure request for the site, will show where contaminated groundwater or soil samples were collected and will provide points of reference for locating residual contamination in the right–of–way.
NR 726.11(4)(b)(b) A copy of the certified survey map or the relevant portion of the recorded plat map for those properties where the legal description in the most recent deed or land contract refers to a certified survey map or a recorded plat map. In cases where the certified survey map or recorded plat map are not legible or are unavailable, a copy of a parcel map from a county land information office may be substituted. A copy of a parcel map from a county land information office shall be legible, and the parcels identified in the legal description shall be clearly identified and labeled with the applicable parcel identification number. NR 726.11(4)(c)(c) A statement signed by the responsible party or other person requesting closure affirming that he or she believes that legal descriptions for all of the properties within or partially within the contaminated site’s or facility’s boundaries where inclusion on a department database is required under s.

All the following information shall be included in a department database attachment to the case closure request: NR 726.11(5)(a)(a) A site location map that outlines all properties within the contaminated site boundaries on a United States Geological Survey topographical map or plat map in sufficient detail to permit the parcels to be located easily. This map shall identify the location of all municipal and potable wells within 1200 feet of the site. If there is only one parcel, this map may be combined with the map required in par. (b). NR 726.11(5)(b)(b) A detailed site map of all contaminated properties within the contaminated site boundaries, showing buildings, roads, property boundaries, contaminant sources, utility lines, monitoring wells, and potable wells.

NR 720, within the contaminated site boundaries.
