This Zoning Code permits specific uses in specific
districts, and these performance standards are designed to limit,
restrict and prohibit the effects of those uses outside their premises
or district. All structures, lands, air and waters shall hereafter,
in addition to their use, site and sanitary regulations, comply with
the following performance standards established in this article.
No person or activity shall emit any fly ash,
dust, fumes, vapors, mists or gases in such quantities so as to substantially
contribute to exceeding established state or federal air pollution
standards.
All activities involving the manufacturing,
utilization, processing or storage of flammable and explosive materials
shall be provided with adequate safety devices against the hazard
of fire and explosion and with adequate fire-fighting and fire-suppression
equipment and devices that are standard in the industry. All materials
that range from active to intense burning shall be manufactured, utilized,
processed and stored only in completely enclosed buildings which have
incombustible exterior walls and an automatic fire-extinguishing system.
The aboveground storage capacity of materials that produce flammable
or explosive vapors shall not exceed 30,000 gallons.
No activity shall emit glare or heat that is
visible or measurable outside its premises except activities which
may emit direct or sky-reflected glare which shall not be visible
outside their district. All operations producing intense glare or
heat shall be conducted within a completely enclosed building. Exposed
sources of light shall be shielded so as not to be visible outside
their premises.
A.
No activity shall locate, store, discharge or permit
the discharge of any treated, untreated or inadequately treated liquid,
gaseous or solid materials of such nature, quantity, obnoxiousness,
toxicity or temperature that might run off, seep, percolate or wash
into surface or subsurface waters so as to contaminate, pollute or
harm such waters or cause nuisances such as objectionable shore deposits,
floating or submerged debris, oil or scum, color, odor, taste or unsightliness
or be harmful to human, animal, plant or aquatic life.
B.
In addition, no activity shall withdraw water or discharge
any liquid or solid materials so as to exceed, or contribute toward
the exceeding of, the minimum standards and those other standards
and the application of those standards set forth in Ch. NR 102, Wis.
