Frequently Asked Questions
- Do I need a permit for land clearing in Richfield?
- Permit requirements in Richfield vary based on the project size and proximity to wetlands or steep Kettle Moraine topography. Most significant clearing in Washington County requires an erosion control permit; we recommend checking with the local zoning office.
- What is the best time of year for clearing in Washington County?
- Winter is often ideal for clearing in Washington County when the ground is frozen, which protects the stony Casco-Rodman loam from compaction. However, work can be performed year-round depending on current moisture levels and local noise ordinances.
- How do you handle invasive species like Buckthorn in Richfield?
- Our Richfield contractors typically use forestry mulching for invasive species. This grinds the buckthorn and honeysuckle into a mulch that helps suppress regrowth while avoiding the need for large-scale hauling.
- Can you clear land near the Washington County wetland areas?
- Yes, but it requires strict adherence to Kettle Moraine erosion control standards. Our contractors use low-pressure equipment to minimize impact and ensure compliance with Wisconsin DNR standards.
